A review by jsmith6747
Etiquette & Espionage by Gail Carriger
2.0
The description reminded me of the Gallagher Girls by Ally Carter with some high society etiquette mixed in.
Mademoiselle Geraldine's Finishing Academy for Young Ladies of Quality is not your average finishing school. Yes...they learn the art of proper dress, manners, and etiquette...but there is far more to the curriculum than meets the eye. Not even Mademoiselle Geraldine is aware of the true mission of her school.
Sophronia Temminnick is a very inquisitive young lady, which causes her to get into quite a bit of trouble at home. Her mother is delighted when Ms. Geraldine extends an offer to her daughter to attend her very exclusive academy.
The majority of the book is a bit of a mystery as Sophronia and her friends try to locate a missing object that is desperately wanted by an outside group that is threatening the school. There is a werewolf, a vampire, and an all boys school for geniuses which all could have provided the basis for a great story. Unfortunately, this book fell short of my expectations.
My full review is on my blog. http://jacquesbooknook.blogspot.com/2013/07/etiquette-espionage-by-gail-carriger.html
