Soulless by Gail Carriger
3.0
I really really wanted to like this book. It has a strong female, steampunk Victorian London, and vampires and werewolves.
The sex scenes were not the breaking point. They were okay as far a sex scenes go. Better than some written by more literary authors.
The problem was introducing a Real Historical Personage in the last chapter acting in a historically inconsistent manner than really killed it for me. To make the heroines dreams come true and wrap it up in a pretty bow.
I’m sorry. There were many parts I did enjoy, especially the beginning. I’ve just read too much history I guess.
