I half expected this to be ridiculous. How can vampires and werewolves, steampunk romance, and Beauty and the Beast all come together without being ridiculous? I don‘t know, but it did. And it was great! I had the hardest time putting this one down and look forward to reading more from this author.

Vampires and Werewolves! Mystery and Romance!

I absolutely loved this story. The narration was perfect, the romance was everything I could ask for and the female lead is strong and opinionated as well as a scientist.

reading_rainbow I loved this one!! I keep meaning to pick up more in this series 🖤🖤🖤 2y
wanderinglynn Sounds interesting! 2y

Fun. Steamy. Full of parasols, ray guns, clockwork hearts, vampires, and other shapeshifters. #FairytaleReadingChallenge @Charityann I may continue the series because I enjoy steampunk. #SeriesRead21 @TheSpineView

TheSpineView I have this in a pile somewhere. Maybe I should move it up the list. 3y

Ok, I ended up REALLY enjoying this?! This had gothic romance vibes, paranormal monsters, steampunk.. I thought it was going to be ridiculous but it ended up being well written, I LOVED the characters (Lucy and Miles 🖤!) Miles moods made me laugh and I loved how it was kind of a ghost story as well? Idk lol but I‘m definitely going to read the others in this series, I enjoyed this author!

That was a quick read/audiobook.

Gothic romance meets steampunk.

And, as I now know, there are two more books in this series.

Finished my daughter's scarf at last. It lay dormant for a year.

Tagged is the last #audiobook I listened to while weaving in the ends.

Woven on an Ashford Knitter's Loom, used a Merino-Silk-Yarn in laceweight. Just in case you're interested.

Wife Love it!😍 4y

julesG @LibrarianRyan This scarf was woven. I have no idea why this weaving loom is called Knitter's Loom, maybe because it's collapsible and hence portable. 4y
BookNAround Gorgeous! 4y
LibrarianRyan @julesG Ahhhh. I thought originally it was loomed as you showed off your loom when you got it. And the picture didn't look like a true knit. That makes me feel so better. I thought I was missing out on an entire world of knitting. 4y

As the Goodreads description says, it‘s “Jane Eyre meets Beauty and the Beast.” Add in steampunk, paranormal aspects, and it‘s a fun story.

Book 6 of #24b4Monday finished. (#8inTwo, too.)
Current time: 22h2m

Andrew65 Less than 2 hours to go. Simply brilliant! 👍🙌👏 5y

Just finished my first book of 2019! Really interesting combination of fantasy, supernatural, and romance! I'm not very familiar with the steampunk genre, but I'll definitely have to read more!

When you open your audible and you apparently halfway through this and you bailed and you have no idea why you bailed, but now you're not sure if you want to go through this again but maybe you bailed on accident and you should totally give this a second chance? O.O

Leniverse Omg. Steampunk adaptation of Beauty and the Beast? Please give it another chance and then tell me all about it! 6y

Random book from the library shelf, and my first steampunk romance (1st steampunk anything). Interesting world building (lots of corsets!), sweet romance, low ?. Seemed a bit slow to start and then rushed toward the end but still enjoyable. The book has "steampunk proper romance" on the cover which I admit I didn't understand. Now I do - proper as in nothing below the neck if you know what I mean...
