There is much to admire in this book of short stories. The writing is good. Also, although characters from each story make brief appearances in every story, the point is not belabored and the reader isn't subjected to seeing the same scenes over and over. In some "theme" collections of stories, I feel like Alice in Wonderland with characters popping up for brief, nonsensical appearances. Not so in this book.The plots are predictable and foreshadowed from the opening paragraphs. This isn't a book I will re-read, but being a guest at a duke's estate while awaiting a wedding is a pleasant way to spend time.
