Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters

4.0

Extremely sexy whilst also being gripping and romantic. This is the fourth book I have read by Waters and her writing never fails to totally absorb me. I loved the details of late 1800s London and the glimpses into the spaces women found and made for themselves. I think Fingersmith will always be my favourite though as the plot was just so outrageously surprising. Would give this 5 stars if the narrator didn't enrage me every so often with her petty selfishness and childishness, but these moments were short-lived and the rest more than made up for it!
