Ce livre explore la condition féminine au début du 19e siècle, particulièrement pour une jeune femme de la haute société qui est passionnée par la médecine et rêve de devenir chirurgienne.
Ce livre contient également des éléments de mystère et d'horreur; sans être extrêmement graphique, il contient un certain de description de corps/cadavres, d'éléments médicaux, de chirurgie.
Maintenant pour mon avis : J'ai passé un très bon moment à lire ce livre. Les personnages sont sympathiques, le rythme de l'histoire maintient l'intérêt du lecteur et pousse à vouloir continuer à lire.
Je vais définitivement lire le second tome de cette duologie.

Hazel was an interesting character she reminded me of Hermione from the Harry Potter books. (I'm sure most people would know the reference but just in case). Some parts of her I didn't quite understand though like being engaged for most of her life but it didn't bother her to get close to Jack or stay engaged but then again the times? Maybe? She also was strange when she and Jack would be around a dead body but still think about kissing each other? Not sure if that was the best setting, seems almost...icky? Not sure if that the right word for it.
Jack was also a bit different but I could understand him in a way because of how he grew up. Things didn't effect him the same way because he was so used to seeing it. The book would also show glimpses in his life and how he had a crush on someone else but which I didn't understand the purpose of to be honest unless the author was trying to show us what kind of personality Jack had?
I liked the story but again ups and downs. If you don't like gore in your stories this one isn't for you. This also seems to be science fiction. It was pretty easy to figure out what would happen in the end but there was also a surprise I didn't see coming so kudos to the author on that one. If it wasn't for that I probably wouldn't be interested in reading the next book if I'm going to be honest.
