The Lions of Fifth Avenue by Fiona Davis
3.0

Interesting story with some interesting feminist characters. I really liked the parts about the first wave feminist movement, heterodoxy club, "new woman," etc. Though kind of a strange mystery at the center; not sure how plausible any of it seems, although apparently a family did used to live in the library. At times felt preachy - about the value of literature, art, human creation, etc. Even though I fully agree with the value of those, it just felt kind of heavy handed.
