A Most Peculiar Circumstance by Jen Turano
4.0
This book is funny. Don’t get me wrong; the plot is serious, and towards the end of the book, it gets pretty suspenseful, but Ms. Turano writes with wit, humor, and loads of charm.
Both main characters, Arabella and Theodore, are, in my mind, very well developed throughout the story, and are quite likeable, even when they’re being stubborn. The chemistry between the two is really sweet and honest. They’re relatable, fun, and really, just loveable. I’d give anything to know them in real life rather than just in a work of fiction!
Ms. Turano did a fabulous job in writing this book! And I really can’t wait to read another installment in this series (the first, A Change of Fortune, released in November 2012). I highly, highly recommend A Most Peculiar Circumstance to you…but only after you’ve read A Change of Fortune. I didn’t read the first book, and though I don’t think anything was ruined for me, I know I missed out on some storyline that was alluded to in A Most Peculiar Circumstance. Besides, if the first book in this series is anything like the one I just reviewed, then I’m missing out on a fun, fabulous read if I don’t go back and read the first one! (Which, as it happens, I’m about to start!)
