     The Strange Case of the Alchemist’s Daughter is a mash-up of science fiction and horror classics. There are allusions to Jekyll and Hyde, Frankenstein, and even Sherlock Holmes! If you loved this novel, be sure to check out European Travel for the Monstrous Gentlewoman!

     Milk of Shades and Honey is a fun Halloween read for those who want a regency romance with a supernatural twist! It is definitely a treat, not a trick!
