Well figs! -- This was SUCH a joyride. Although a chunky read with the teeniest type, I breezed through this and enjoyed every moment. Such a fun story with over the top drama and lots of queers in the Victorian era, I just wish we had more!
The journal entries were enticing and spliced together the narrative in such a fun way! Henry in all their stammering fruit-swearing glory charmed me to no end and the remainder of the cast also snatched my heart quicker than Mordred did to Maggie's finger! I'll be thinking about them for a while..
The ending felt a bit swiftly wrapped up and I could have used more comedown time and resolutions (and maybe more kisses if I'm being real) but nothing to knock down a star!
