This was a fantastic read. I loved it so so much! It's got a touch of steampunk around the mechanical aspects of the story (cool flying machines and whatnot) but it's not a big theme in the story. It's got a gothic vibe, so it's got a slow start, but very intriguing and there's betrayal and romance and mystery and it's just a great read.#paperback#peculiars#maureendoylemcquerry#ya#historicalfantasy#steampunk#adventure#gothic#mystery#comingofage#romance
