Welcome to Litsy!

The Twelfth Enchantment is a slow burn—maybe too slow for its length—but the third act saves it. Lucy, cheated out of her inheritance and pushed toward marriage, is drawn into a hidden supernatural war after a mysterious stranger arrives with a message for her. Written in a Jane Austen–inspired style, the dialogue shines, though the long descriptions sometimes stall the momentum.

Read halfway and put down. Too much for me. This is like the 3rd book I've gone halfway and quit. I usually don't do this. What's that all about?

I generally struggle with the decision to DNF, so I have a few selections that qualify for #didntlikestillfinished. These are from the last 6 months or so. I'm always hoping a book will redeem itself. #marchintoreading @RealLifeReading

I was talking to a friend about the Industrial Revolution (like you do) and remembered this weird and wonderful book. Characters include William Blake and Lord Byron, and there are witches and magic. Also a somewhat Austenesque plot and protagonist. And history. Not for everybody, but def for me.
