Veronica Speedwell is the victorian english lady of my heart (I was this close of giving it 5 stars)

This was a delight to read ! Veronica Speedwell and her colleague Stoker (there is a great companionship btw the two and also.. a delicious slow burn^^) are asked by a royal princess to solve the murder of an artist, who was a pregnant mistress of a lord..

I forgot how witty and humorous the characters were, let me search for a quote by my dear Veronica..
“We are educated out of common sense, curiosity, and any real merit. We are made to be decorative and worthy of display, with occasional forays into procreation and good works, but nothing more.”

Anyways we have :
- Amazing main characters
- Interesting secondary characters
- A murder mystery
- Victorian London setting
- Tons of humor
- Slow burn

Need I say more ?
