I'm doing a re-read of all Gail Carriger's books, in the chronological order suggested on her blog. This is the first! I'm not sure I'd recommend starting with it...I still feel like [b:Soulless 6381205 Soulless (Parasol Protectorate, #1) Gail Carriger https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1314020848l/6381205.SY75.jpg 6569140] is probably the best starting point if you've never read anything of hers. Or possibly [b:Etiquette & Espionage 10874177 Etiquette & Espionage (Finishing School, #1) Gail Carriger https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1331952557l/10874177.SX50.jpg 15789500], depending on if you're more in the mood for an adult (Soulless) or YA (E&E) series. The Curious Case is an awesome little story that gives us a peek into the very interesting life of Mr. Alessandro Tarabotti, father of the much-beloved Alexia Tarabotti of Soulless. I was wild with curiosity over him, and how he came to be married however briefly to Alexia's mother, and this little gem answers some questions and raises a bunch more. I only wish it was longer...I feel like there is so much more to Alessandro's life and his very interesting self. Sigh.
