Very much a Jane Austin/Louisa May Alcott/Thomas Hardy/every Bronte sister plus magic story. Truer to the original genre than Gail Carriger's Alexia Tarabotti novels. More interesting than the originals for me, but that era always gave me the worst headache. Starts slow but picks up the pace a bit later on. I'll read the sequel if I run across it, but I'm not looking all over for it.
