Series: Finishing School #3 This one was fun like other ones. Sopronia is a little bit older and focusing just a little bit on her boy troubles, but it wasn't terribly annoying. A couple of werewolves did get called "hirsute interlopers", which I found amusing. Without giving anything away, things...
Waistcoats & Weaponry - Gail Carriger I just adore this series and this book was no different. There was so much happening in this third book of the Finishing School Series, it was like something new with every page. It kept me engaged and definitely kept me guessing. I have to admit that I di...
A couple of years ago, I first read Gail Carriger's Parasol Protectorate Series and fell in love with it. There was something about the author's style, mixed with the old-world steampunk setting, and engaging characters that pulled me right in. I read the whole series in less than two weeks and then...
I loved this one! Sophronia, Dimity, Sidheg, Felix, and Soap have an adventure that made me laugh, cry and smile. My thoughts can be expressed as Wow! NO!!!! and WOW! As adventures go, what could be better than a dirigible, a train, flywaymen, drones, werewolves and strangely behaving mechanicals. I...
The audio is excellent! Moira Quirk nails all the characters and does a fantastic job overall. 1 star gets added for narration. As to the book itself, I enjoyed it, but I kept waiting for the plot to begin; I kept thinking the crises that Sophronia and friends had to solve was just around the cor...
Sidhaeg, one of Sophronia’s best friends, is shaken to the core by devastating news of her werewolf pack back in Scotland. She is convinced that she has to go home to help – which means a crafty absence from the school and a train journey across country Of course, Sophronia is willing to help her ...
I'm usually a terribly serial reader. I don't like to read more books from the same series back to back. I don't even know exactly why. But when I finished Curtsies & Conspiracies I had no choice. I just had to continue reading. Luckily, I already had gotten a copy of Waistcoats & Weaponry for Chris...
(Mis)adventure surrounds Sophronia, a girl with a sharp mind and strong determination. Of course, a lady (in training) does have appearances to maintain, which is exactly what she is learning from Mademoiselle Geraldine's finishing school. After all, what intelligencer wants to broadcast their ski...
This really really felt like a filler book. [spoiler] There was some werewolf and Picklemen politics and whatnot, as well as Soap being turned into a werewolf, which will probably prove to be somewhat interesting at a later date. However, there was far too much of the hated Felix for my taste, and u...
