All Men of Genius by Lev AC Rosen
4.0
This book seemed like it was custom made for me.
If you are also a fan of,
Oscar Wilde, especially THe Importance of Being Earnest
Shakespeare, especially his comedies (or only his comedies that is).
Steampunk, including all disciplines of science, from Jekyll and Hyde chemistry to giant robots.
You would really like this book. Violet a mechanical genius and young lady, would like nothing better than to attend the illustrious science academy Illyria, but unfortunately it only allows men. What's a girl to do? Of course, she is going to come in from the country, in a different guise. In the country she is Violet, but in the city she is Ashton.
There are so many other little ruses, confusions and plots going on (most of the romantic nature), that although it's not hard to keep track it is very amusing to read.
Overall, enjoyable, funny and well-written. Though the ending for me was a bit rushed.
