Does what it says on the tin. #CBRBINGO – Snake

The Murder of Mr. Wickham by Claudia Gray

November 2, 2022 by narfna Leave a Comment

The short, spoiler-free version: Two thumbs up, very fun. Surprisingly angsty. Does justice to murder mysteries and to Jane Austen. The longer, mostly spoiler-free version (spoils the premise and which characters are in the book from the Jane Austen canon): But where is Elinor??

For a non-violent person, I am sure am ok with the murder of a fictional character. When I saw the title, The Murder of Mr. Wickham, I did a little mental fist pump and said, “yes!!” So, I was predisposed to enjoy this. Gray has chosen to make her two primary POV characters, Juliet Tilney and Jonathon Darcy. Juliet is […]
