Giggling and kicking my feet these dorks are just too cute together

“For an old man, he wasn’t bad looking. He had to be at least thirty.”

This might be the funniest completely sincere line I’ve ever read. Kady Cross what do you mean he’s 30 and he’s an “old man”. Have you met another human being. Like ever.

God, I love how messy the relationships are here. Griffin and Finley both mutually pining after each other while Finley pretends to flirt with Dalton while Mei is ACTUALLY in love with Dalton but pretending to be in love with Jasper, Jasper being genuinely in love with Mei but also crushing on Emily who’s happily in love with Sam… cinema.

Griffin King you wonderfully strange little man

Ahhh I needed this tbh

I am Younger Brother’s #1 hater

Somehow both deeply anti-racist and yet also exceedingly misogynist

JP Morgan sincerely tries to convince Henry Ford that magic is real and admits that he stole an entire mummy from Egypt while I’m wondering what does any of this have to do with the plot

I could have done without the descriptions of the indigenous people “fornicating like dogs” on the boat tbh

I’m not sure I can make it past “mother’s younger brother watches Evelyn strip and touch herself then falls out of the closet and jizzes all over her”. What the fuck.

Also completely inaccurate corset descriptions hello??

“Pardon me, have you got a moment? My name is Dr. Sigmund Freud.”

“Haha, what, is he like, gonna grow Wolverine claws or something- OH MY GOD HE IS”

I’m beginning to think that the creepy age gap might be The Point

We were off to such a strong start and then it’s revealed that the protagonist is 16 and the love interest is 20… I’m gonna choose to disregard that for my own sanity

girl I’m bored let’s wrap it up already

> cover is an image of two Victorian women
> none of the timelines in the book take place in the Victorian era
