5/30/2023 0 Comments Dark Desires by Delicious DavidThe beginning felt a little jerky but once the flow started, I was really enjoying it. I got this free from Amazon, as a free book, super pleased. I read this for my Gothic square in Halloween Bingo. This book finishes at 93%.Ī thick gray wall of fog hovered over the damp stones of Hanbury Street, carrying the stink of old blood and rotting entrails. Darcie (not a usual female name in nineteenth century England) & the hero's attraction never seemed real to me & multiple depictions of the hero's grey eyes do not a character make. But after that things started to plateau and then go downhill. So.seduced by the incredible cover, I was entranced and intrigued by the first chapter & the horrible position the destitute Darcie was in. I'll discuss on my blog in a few days why readers should be glad Goodreads has set this standard. Dark Gothic is a theme not a series - otherwise all Victoria Holt's books would be a series. A series on Goodreads should have a character, setting or an overarching storyline in common - & that doesn't seem to be the case here. These six books keep being made into a series and I don't think this is a series by Goodreads standards. My reasons for reading this novel were not my usual reasons.
