The Case of the Gypsy Good-Bye

So much exotification of Romani people here. The one Romani character we interact with is a mystical stereotype. This book could have been so much better wrt challenging stereotypes of Romani people in Victorian England—Enola could have learned over the course of the book that Romani people are not what she previously thought they were. When you write about fictional Romani people for a historical fiction book, you have a responsibility to do actual research about them, beyond knowing what white English people at the time thought of them.
