4.5 Stars
I love a book with a good, strong female lead
and it was especially fun to watch Vivian develop her love of science.
The Blue Orchid society is a wonderfully diverse and solid group of
innovative young ladies in the Victorian era and it's such a joy to
delve into each of their stories.
Vivian is very smart and not
afraid to be true to herself. She's a sharp character that was a delight
to read about and I just adored her. I loved Lord Benedict and the
whole situation regarding him. Moore always introduces a thread to her
stories that aren't the norm for the time periods she writes in, and
this whole series is evident of that. The Chinese element was enjoyable
and interesting as well.
Solid characters with a solid plot.
Personally, I wanted more romance, since this is labeled as a Victorian
romance, but all in all, this is a very entertaining book in a wonderful
series and I'm anticipating the rest of the Society's stories.
Content: very mild romance; very mild moments of violence/peril
