Well...

The clothes are all wrong. It started nicely, I got excited, but at the third pair of trousers... :-( And the streetwalker costume... that was the last straw. :-(

I was very impressed by the descriptions of food in the beginning of the book, but that, too, fizzled.

I was not at all impressed by the judgmental descriptions of women.

I believe I would not have liked Phryne if I hadn't learned to know her through the tv show. That's wonderful.

The mystery was good enough, interesting, exciting, well written, but... as said. I don't think I'll be continuing reading the rest of this series, at least now. Maybe one day when I need a quick read. It's harmless enough.
