The Lady's Guide to Celestial Mechanics by Olivia Waite

It took me a long time to warm to Lucy and Catherine. I almost DNF'd this book several times but finally made it through the first part of the story. There are so many blogs and podcasts that were singing the praises of this book that I guess I expected more from the beginning. But once we really started seeing the two fall in love and each getting to spread their wings in her own way. Did the last Big Misunderstanding need to happen? Not really. But the middle part of the book, seeing the Countess of Moth, an amazing embroidery artist, fall in love with a woman who looks at the stars, was finally the story that I had been expecting.

Three stars
Followed by The Care and Feeding of Waspish Widows

Hard copy I didn't keep
