I enjoyed this much more than the Marie-Grace companion story. AG should have had the Louisiana native author do the whole series - better yet, just focus on Cecile and the unique history of free people of color in New Orleans! The tandem stories were not well coordinated, either. Half of this was a literal rerun of Marie-Grace’s Mardi Gras ball. More original Cecile content would have been better.

These books I can skim over and still get the overall vibe. Cute story.
