I found this book to be really entertaining. It doesn't hurt that it revolves around a time period I am obsessed with, not to mention the unexpected theme of changing Victorian funeral culture on the cusp of the new century. I liked this even better than Girl with a Pearl Earring, although it could be perceived as macabre by some, it was so much less depressing. A GREAT story with fascinating historical details. The main character of Maude is my hero! Highly recommend...
