Ok so this book. This book. Where do I even start? I think my favorite thing about this book was my little *gasp* every time a new character was introduced. Mary Jekyll? *gasp!* Sherlock Holmes and Doctor John Watson? *gasp!* Diana Hyde? *gasp!* The list goes on and on and each time I would gasp or giggle in delight. And really, with the time that this was taking place in (Late 19th Century) the premise that the women really held their own was quite fascinating.

As someone who has read many of the classics brought to life by the characters (Frankenstein, The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Dracula, to name a few) this was utterly amazing. I think Goss did a great job with tying in the ACTUAL stories into the women’s stories and making them more complete. Listening to the audio book was especially great, the narrator was amazing at giving all the women their own voices and even the men were distinguishable.
