2024 book 128

 Olga Wojtas' Miss Blaine's Prefect and the Golden Samovar

I have Covid (boo) so wanted something light to read, and this fit the bill? It’s about a Scottish librarian who time-travels to tsarist Russia, and she thinks her mission is to help a shy young heiress get married, but meanwhile someone is definitely murdering people. Everything is VERY clear to the reader which makes the protagonist’s cluelessness really frustrating. But there are a lot of very funny and silly moments. I might read the next in the series. B/B+.
