A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray
4.0
I've been meaning to get around to reading this for almost 20 years. I'm so happy to not be disappointed!
- Victorian England and India
- all-girls boarding school complete with rivalling mean girls
- the oppression of girls and women
- arranged marriages to sickeningly older men
- a secret garden
- mediumship - both the con and occult kind
- secret orders and societies
- portals to other dimensions
- malevolent spirits
What an underrated series! This story was a total trip. It was incredibly immersive and I was absolutely lost to it. The forgiveness element was the most satisfying. I will definitely be continuing on.
