This entire trilogy is a delight - smart and warm and cozy and elegantly-written and just completely lovely. A great treat for readers of any age and an author I'll now be following eagerly.

This is a really.lovely pseudo steampunk Victorian world all about fashion and as someone who loves reading about fashion and costume design, this was a really fun YA read.

Fantastic story about abuse, power, trauma, and survival.

Turns out I really like Jennifer Lynn Barnes' writing! Basically a fun Criminal Minds but YA premise that compares very favourably to some other YA thrillers out there.
