louiseluxI finished Gaywyck. It is utterly preposterous and I entreat you all to read it! The deepest, darkest most broodingest secrets of the Gaylord Family are revealed and there is much leaping into the cold salty waters of the sea, for reasons I couldn't fathom. There were floods of tears by the end (the characters, not mine) and a happy ever after.
Well!
I have now moved on to The Mirador by Sarah Monette, which is far more gently cracktastic. I'm really enjoying this one, apart from the times when characters expound at length about complicated plot points. I can never follow machinations or remember complex histories in novels, and it worries me that I won't understand some vital plot twist later on. Woe. But Mildmay is incredibly endearing and makes up for all the machinations that I struggle to keep up with. Sadly there is no sign of any gay incest yet.
