I am returning with my new feature... Why I love which takes place on Wednesdays. Today's proclamation of love concerns our Favorite Character
Why I Love...Alexia Tarabotti (from the Parasol Protectorate)
I need to go back and look at my comment so I can find the wonderful commenter that recommended this book to me. I can't wait to continue with this series. Review to come tomorrow :)
This series takes place in a Victorian steampunk age. I love love Alexia Tarabotti! Talk about a bundle of contradictions. Alexia is an old-maid who adheres to society social expectations while breaking all the rules at the same time. It's wonderful because I never really know what she will do. I love how Alexia cares about etiquette and is continuously amused or annoyed by Lord Maccon (who is quite swoonworthy in my honest opinion) lack of etiquette (he is a werewolf after all...who can blame him). At the same time, she is quick to sneak out to vampire hives and gallivant about at night. Not very Victorian and I love it! Oh and of course is witty, which is kind of a requirement to be one of my favorite characters. Oh I have to stop now because the review is still to come. Long story short... Alexia is a witty ball of contradictions and I LOVES it!
