I enjoyed the premise of a secret society of female scientists in the early 1800's, which actually had some historical accuracy. The female characters are strong but limited by their station and the status of women in England at this time. Their work towards betterment leads to a mystery which develops into a romance. A fun read once I got into it.

This book is the definition of #girlboss #slayqueen and I mean that in a negative way. It’s SO on the nose that it’s just exhausting. Also… she’s super “feminist” but anti labor rights? Also why are all of the non cis white characters servants?? rubbed me the wrong way, even if “historically accurate.” Had to force myself to finish it. 0.5 stars just because I liked the male love interest
