Short and Sweet:Something Strange and Deadly is so much fun. This creepy, intriguing world is so captivating you may fall asleep at 3:00 am with your face in your book because you just can't sleep until you know what will happen! :)To Elaborate....First of all, I adore Eleanor. She is so brave in he...
More of my reviews can be found here: Take Me Away...I am ashamed to say I left this sitting on my shelf for over a year. I always knew I wanted to read it, but I just kept getting slammed with my TBR pile and it kept getting pushed back. And then the second book came out and I knew I messed up. If ...
I'm glad I got this on my Kindle and not a hard copy because that cover is horrendous. Anyway, I did find this book enjoyable. I'm on a historical fiction kick lately so that 1876 setting was right up my alley. I also liked the use of zombies, although they are more like Inferi in the Harry Potter s...
I traded for this book on YA Book Exchange and then the novel proceeded to sit on my shelf for a while.

Something strange and deadly is happening at Philadelphia....This book is all kinds of....Oh Steampunk, how I love thee?The past and the present converged into one. Parasols, machinery, and zombies. Okay, this book has ZOMBIES (known here as the DEAD). I mean, ZOMBIES (whatevs haf -t) which I absolu...
Balancing between 3 and 4 stars here.I found the book fast-paced enough to my liking, as well as convincing in terms of mores: Elanor's mother is concerned about keeping up appearances, about her daughter snagging off a rich husband to save the family from ruin... all things that fit, in my opinion,...
2.5 to 3 starsthere was just too much going on, and I felt exhausted by each new development. Zombies, voodoo, dynamite, safe crackers, explosions, very Hungry Dead, matchmaking mothers, vengeful spirits, kick-ass Chinese girls, and the annoying over use of "Empress" had my head spinning.Updated Rev...
