I'm a big fan of Sylvia Moreno-Garcia's books and adore her incredible versatility. The Daughter of Doctor Moreau combines historical fiction with scifi, reimagining H. G. Wells' The Island of Doctor Moreau, but told from the perspective of his daughter Carlotta and grounds overseer Montgomery.  This was a really good read, but not my favourite. Although I have read a number of Wells' books, I haven't read Doctor Moreau so I didn't have a strong connection to the source material. However, I really enjoyed the lush setting and the life depicted on Moreau's property.

I ended up listening to the audiobook for this title and would definitely recommend it! The narrator does a great job bringing the story to life.
