Friday Memes: The Masque of the Black Tulip by Lauren Willig

Happy Friday everybody!
Book Beginnings on Friday is now hosted by Rose City Reader. The Friday 56 is hosted at Freda's Voice. Check out the links above for the rules and for the posts of the participants each week. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Beginning:
London, England, 2003

I bit my lip on an "Are we there yet?"
Friday 56:
"Ah, the sister of our gallant adventurer." On Lord Vaughn's lips the word "gallant" sounded more insult than praise. 
I am spotlighting The Masque of the Black Tulip by Lauren Willig. This one has been on my TBR mountain forever. I bought it after reading The Secret of the Pink Carnation. Here is the description from Amazon:
...But now she has a million questions about the Pink Carnation's deadly French nemesis, the Black Tulip. And she's pretty sure that her handsome onagain, off-again crush, Colin Selwick, has the answers somewhere in his archives. But what she discovers in an old codebook is something juicier than she ever imagined.

    I'm so curious about this series. I read a stand alone book by Willig and absolutely loved it and have wanted to start this series.

    The title is great and creates a sense of mystery. The cover doesn't do much for me, but I am curious. Thanks for visiting my blog.
