Perfect quick read for a lazy afternoon-i sped thru it. It was pretty good but not one i would revisit. Its aimed at young adults so the plot and the writing reflects that. Its not on apar with fingersmith but i liked it nonetheless.
It tell the story of a teenager victorian girl who gets incarcerated in an asylum for the insane. she's perfectly sane and the book chronicles who she meets inside and her escape attempts whislt trying to unravel the mystery of who in her family put her here. The heroine is a little modern-wants to be a Doctor, is a lesbian- nothing wrong with any of this but she never questions it herself which for me seems odd for victorian times?
