I read for the feminist and gothic aspects, not the romance. I’m also not big on history. However, I do appreciate the amount of research the author did and I find that the story was adorable, at least in the middle of it all. The pace seemed too slow for me and I used quick reading techniques to bulldoze through it after about page 80. The reflections on class are wonderfully written. I did feel that the feminism fell short at the end of the book with a certain life-saving method, and found myself on the villain’s side, despite the protagonist being a genuine hero, regarding a choice that she’d made that concludes the book. I feel that both that and the pacing are what are putting me to 3 stars. I’m interested in the sequel, to see how things go in relation to women’s oppression and medicine within Hazel’s story and further exploration of class issues with a person close to her.
