pickWho would have thunk, a YA #Steampunk detective novel would garner 4 stars from this #stargrinch! This book was cheeky & silly but so fun. Mina Holmes ( niece of Sherlock) & Evaline Stoker (relative of Bram) race through Victorian London slaying the Undead, saving princesses and solving crimes. With imaginative settings, snarky dialogue, guest appearances and quick wit,I finished up second quarter of #booked2018 🎉 This is book 3 of the series!!
Cinfhen This is book one![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
