I gave it 3 stars which, for me, means good not great. It’s a bit lighter than I hoped it would be.

I had been looking at it. Though it looks like people are a bit half & half on it. Are you lukewarm on it?

I think her book jacket designer needs some new ideas!

I’m on a bit of a Royals kick anyways. So yes, I’m going to do it.
