So this book ticks so many of my book boxes: 1800s Victorian Britain, a gorgeous love triangle (Jem forever has my heart), and witty dialogue.

I love that Tessa loves to read (though perhaps this is a female protagonist stereotype that’s a little overdone) and the book references between her and Will all the way through are much appreciated.

Building tension is done very well in this- one of the books you have to close for a minute and compose yourself but I’ve deducted a star on this reread because on reflection the writing isn’t the best quality. People appear to lack depth and feeling and this time round I wasn’t as lost in the steampunk aesthetic which was a shame.

Four stars for an enjoyable read

Perfect for people who love the books and the extra info stored on Pottermore

My favourite parts are the pictures of JKR’s original notebook pages and early drafts including a detailed plot of Order of the Phoenix. I am also deeply in love with all of Jim Kay’s portraits that are owned by Bloomsbury- I really hope they eventually make those available to buy as prints!
