A Spy in the House by Y.S. Lee
5.0

Wow! A Spy In The House was such a great book. I absolutely loved everything about it. I couldn't put it down and I can't wait for the second book in the series. If it's anything like this one it will be spectacular!

My favorite thing about A Spy In The House was probably the setting. I love historicals and Victorian London even more. Everything about the book was good but the setting was described in perfect detail and I felt as if I was there. It drew me in from the very first page.

The cast of characters in A Spy In The House were brilliant. Mary was such a great mix of emotions and characteristics. Sometimes she was bold and outgoing and sometimes she was shy and nervous. I loved seeing both sides of her. Then there was James. Their relationship was quite unusual but made the book even more entertaining. He was great. =]

Overall, A Spy In The House is a novel for mystery and historical lovers everywhere. There was never a dull moment. I can't wait for more of Mary Quinn's story and luckily the second book will be available this August!
