Great and terrible Beauty review for paper (wip)
Beautiful Indulgence
Imagine that you are a fifteen year old girl living in Victorian India, longing to see England and its fabled charms. Now imagine being hit with a vision of something awful happening just moments before it happens. Welcome to the world of Gemma Doyle.
After her mother dies in a not so accidental accident, Gemma is sent to England's Spence Academy, a finishing school for young ladies.
Rid of might be a better phrase though, because she is sent as a last resort. Her father has lost his mind, and her brother is less than useless unless it comes to his looks.
