Book Love: The Gemma Doyle Trilogy by Libba Bray

Two nights ago, I finished the award-winning Gemma Doyle Trilogy by Libba Bray.

The trilogy follows the phantasmagorical adventures of Gemma Doyle, an English girl of sixteen who embarks on a journey to the Motherland from the British colony of India to learn to live like a proper English lady.

Replete with drama, peril, romance and magic, The Gemma Doyle Trilogy will sweep you off your feet in three delicious books, starting with A Great and Terrible Beauty, continued by Rebel Angels and is concluded by a big, fat, satisfying ending in The Sweet Far Thing.

The themes of authority, family, bonds of friendship, young love and the ambiguity of good and evil are explored in the sweeping chronicle of Gemma's exploits.

Makes for a good, lazy weekend(s) reading! Don't forget the biscuits and the tea!
