Mortal Follies by Alexis Hall

Did not finish book. Stopped at 37%.
I can’t stand Miss Bicky or Robin, the narrator, those two characters have made my reading experience horrible. They’re annoying characters with far too many plot-interrupting quips. And while I love fantasy regency era stuff and I love lgbt+ stuff, I had high hopes that this book would have been just a tad more historically accurate on the general homophobia of the time. It certainly wouldn’t have been so knowledgeable that Miss Mitchelmore would have let herself be so forward or even allow Miss Bicky to be so loud about her queerness. I was just so annoyed by how helter-skelter the plot is that I couldn’t stand to read a page more.
