"Alexia had no doubt that there were twice as many peonies on her mother's gown as there were bows on Evylin's or rosettes on Felicity's."
So this wasn't the first thing I read for 2020, but I've finally progressed on to reviewing books from this year and this one was PHENOMENAL. Certainly it is just a tiny sliver of a morsel and so seems tasty and completely fat free.
I love the work of Ms Carriger and I particularly love any story that involves a certain Alexia Tarabotti. This one has hedgehogs to boot! If you are a fan of the parasol universe then hurry up and get your steampunk loving behind to the couch with a copy!
In a jiffy you will be transported to a world where a manly werewolf is a sight for sore eyes and a soulless lady will have you enthralled.
5 out of 5 because who could resist a hedgehog?
