Review: Secrets of Bennett Hall

Secrets of Bennett Hall Secrets of Bennett Hall by Jordan Elizabeth Mierek
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Adelaide was excited to be a teacher in the small town of Hedlund until one of her students drowned on her watch. Due to these events, she thought her career as an educator was at an end, then she was sent an offer to be a governess at Bennett Hall. Adelaide had no idea why she was chosen, but she was not going to let this uncertainty hold her back. Her charge is a nice girl and the family is kind, but the servants give her the creeps and there seems to be a secret around every corner. Is there any truth to the whispers of the villagers? Is there a connection between Bennett Hall and the dark dreams she had as a child?

Secrets of Bennett Hall is the second book in the Return to Amston series. Although this is the second book, the story inside is able to be read on its own without difficulty. Mierek has written a quick read that will satisfy those who want to finish a book in one sitting (or at least one weekend). The story flowed along and was pleasant, but I finished the book without a lot of feelings about the characters or the storyline. A good read that doesn’t need to be added to the top of your TBR pile, but should at least be considered.
