The idea and the world was cool but it didn't quite live up to my expectations. I did enjoy it but I thought I would love it.

A phenomenally literary adventure

Page 91 and loving it, it’s complicated and witty and I get the sense that the author really loves reading
320- I knew it wasBeth! Ooo the drama, mrs Sutherland.
366- I knew it was moriarty
Great ending, it was just right I loved it.
Overall, I absolutely loved it, everything was perfect. I loved how there were romantic relationships but the real focus was on the family relationships. Even if you haven’t read Dickens you can still enjoy the book greatly like I have, however you may loose out on some of the character references (but it’s not a deal Breaker)
