Average Rating: 
Rating: - Not as good as the first
I read the pink carnation and found it entertaining albeit hard to believe. Almost too cartoonish. This second book is just a recycling of themes and doesn't really bring any interesting characters to boot. I won't be continuing the series.
Rating: - Romance, mystery, action, comedy, history - what more could a girl want?
The Masque of the Black Tulip (and the first book in the series - The Secret History of the Pink Carnation) are both exactly the type of book I enjoy reading - something with romance, comedy, action and mystery. Nothing too heavy, mushy or dramatic. The historical setting in these books makes them more interesting to read - not at all stodgy or boring. These books are great, fun brain candy.
Rating: - She does it again!!

Taking this different persepective on how things are continuing in the world of spies is wonderful, and the way the book is written, makes it easy to read and a blessed break from the trials of life. I do wish the ending was a bit better.. You ... Read More
Rating: - Great sequel!!
This was the second installment of Lauren Willig's Pink Carnation series. Be sure to read The Secret History of the Pink Carnation first. The Masque of the Black Tulip was funny and romantic. Willig is an excellent writer. I flew right through this book. - worth the money.
