Description
'I hoovered up these books in a matter of days. I am obsessed' JENNIE GODFREY, author of The List of Suspicious Things
'Bridget Jones meets every classic novel you've ever loved ... This is like finding an unearthed Jane Austen book you never knew about' STYLIST
'The image of Pandora's Box being opened by my own hand flashed across my mind. A sobering and somewhat disappointing realisation when one understands they are their own worst enemy.'
The Year is 1884 and Emma M. Lion has, at long last, gained her majority. Entering a golden age of friendship with Pierce, Islington, and Hawkes, Emma is confident she will manage whatever comes her way. It is The Season she must help Arabella secure a husband, while navigating the threat of Aunt Eugenia, the unflagging adoration of Charles Goddard, and the amusing unpredictability of St. Crispian's. But the secrets of her trusted friends are what might very well bring about disaster.
Emma M. Lion offers up her Unselected Journals, however self-incriminating they may be. Armed with wit and a sideways amusement, Emma documents the curious realities of her life at Lapis Lazuli House.

Reviews
-
The uniqueness makes it fresh and utterly charming. Emma is a sprightly, winning and witty protagonist who you root for from the off as she spars with Archibald and Matilde, the loathsome cousins she is forced to move in with. There are thrilling scrapes, escapades and mysteries to solve, but for all the fun and fizz there is a weight, too
