Do you like plucky heroines/governesses, witty asides, clever narrators, light gothic elements, an undercurrent of mystery, unique character names, and/or ferns? This book is for you.
Honestly, this book is possibly for everyone, but especially English majors (*cough* me). The series was described to me as “a better Series of of Unfortunate Events in the style of Jane Eyre”, and nowhere did it disappoint.
