Before I get to the new links, remember that you, too, can receive a handwritten letter from Lady Trent! That runs through the end of the month.

(You thought I was exaggerating when I said I would be EVERYWHERE ON THE INTERNET this month. It ain't even done yet, folks.)

The Books and Things post, by the way, includes another giveaway. That's the only new one I've found in the last few days, though.

Was it really only a week ago that I was in . . . where was I on Friday? San Diego. Wow. And barely more than a week since the book came out! But so far, it seems to be going pretty well.

So I read the book last week, very quickly, and I wanted to let you know I really enjoyed it! I love the way you're setting Isabella up to be one of those crusty old dames who marched all over the world having adventures, despite the fact that it wasn't done to have adventures. I also liked that she got some support from her family, it wasn't all about her being oppressed by social expectations. And that she's basically a Geek of the Victorian era, with her shed full of preserved Sparklings.

I also really enjoyed her later-in-life realizations regarding how naive and parochial she'd been on that first trip.

Basically, it was very fun and I want more! I do hope this means it's a series and that it will sell well enough for several more to be published--I really want to hear more about Lady Trent's adventures, including the salacious details.

The contract was for three books to begin with, so you're guaranteed at least two more. :-)
