To start I have not read the book. Somehow it did not cross my path even though I love period books as this. My favorite author being Georgette Heyer and Jane Austin a close second. I am from a diverse family myself and have no issue with creative license to make a fictional story that does not match historical accuracy if it understood it is fiction and it took such liberties as it did, an example being modern tunes played by an orchestra. But, this series does not live up to its potential.While the settings and costumes are vibrant the characters are lackluster, dull, boring or annoying like Eloise. The characters did not come across as they should by either bad script, bad casting and at times both. Pen's character is the exception and came across as the most believable. She portrayed real and true human emotions and was neither dull or annoying and the actress played her well. Overall this is a series to watch if you in the mood for a period piece and can overlook the liberties it took and dont expect a masterpiece as some give it but it not a total garbage rating as haters gave it., so in the middle rating i give it, no more than that, too much dull writing and bland characters to give this anymore than a 5 or 6 star rating.
