Romancing the Inventor: A Supernatural Society Novella

I love the way this author does romance. Intriguing characters, quirky and vivid turns of phrase (I particularly enjoyed "gertuding"), humor, and just enough detail in danger or dishabille to titillate and make the heart pound.

I am most pleased that my favorite hat making inventor finally has someone to love her properly. If you're already a fan of the other books in this universe then you will probably enjoy this bit of dandelion fluff quite as much as the rest. You'll definitely feel more warmly disposed toward a certain wicker chicken.

Warning: do not read if a couple ladies getting naked and lovingly frisky with each other makes you uncomfortable. Gail Carriger has many other books of a more heteronormative and less descriptive bent, if that's your fancy.

The narrator was ok. I wish someone would go over names with each reader so that there is consistency between series.

I really enjoyed this book. Its about one of my favorite characters in the Parasol universe, and I loved to meet her again.
This is a romance book, and I loved the story and the drama. It is also really really funny, as is all Gail Carrigers book.
Emma Newman did a wonderful job, and she is always a pleasure to listen too. Loved the French accent!!

I've been an avid fan of all things Parasol since I was given the first Parasol Protectorate novel years ago. I'm overjoyed to see LGBT themes in her novels, and now, with this story a fantastic f/f story.
When listening to an audio book, the narrator is so important. I've heard books that were good, but the narrator was not and it ruined the experience.
This narrator was prefect! Her voice was soothing and silken. I could listen to her read almost anything.

I love this book and the characters. It was far too short. I do recommend having read the Parasol Protectorate series at least up until Heartless before tackling this

I knew I loved the story already, this being my second time going through it. But the reader's performance made the story coming alive in entirely different way! Both my interpretation reading it and her vocal presence reciting it created two wonderfully unique experiences, each great in its own way. The romance was sweet, Imogene really shined through Emma this time around just as strongly, and Genevieve's charms showed through just as well. Another job well done!

A delight of a story. I love a romance that makes me laugh out loud, and the romance itself was excellent.

I love seeing these glimpses of the characters from Carriger's other books.

this is a very cute short story. I very much enjoyed reading it. And no dead lesbians.

I have either listened to or read all of Gail Carriger's novels. I have fallen in love with the universe she has created but generally find her plots to be very thin. This one is not so thin. While the plotline is much more simple than the other ones she strives to weave, this one rings more true to life.

The latter is certainly not as interesting as the former...

I thuroughly enjoy this universe. I find it particularly interesting that it might just have taken female-led, supernatural hives and packs to make it possible for women to be daring, ingenious, and educated. Though this is an age-appropriate exception, I adore the entertaining steam-punk books written by Ms. Carriger, appropriate for intelligent people awf Qualahtay, 12 and up.

Funny thing happened on the way to the opera.... Well, OK, I wasn't on my way anywhere. But it absolutely relates, since I quoted this FANTASTIC author, Gail Carriger!

I was actually sitting at a table in a football-field-sized ballroom participating in an "icebreaker" moment with five gay men. First, I *loathe* "icebreakers" -- INFJ, babay! Second, I was the only woman at the table, even though there were plenty of other lesbians included in the 2400 attendees of this LGBT-specific conference.

If I'm not mistaken, all of these beautiful men were 1st-timers to the conference. They asked, and I told them of my experience at the previous two conferences. We were, of course, picketed at the first two. Though, hats off to the amazing people of Pittsburgh and Pennsylvania at large! This January, 2017, conference, we were not accosted at any point in time!

ANYWHO, I was explaining, per these gentlemen's questions, that, for the past three years of attendance, at least for the females, with one exception (medication was in order), the conference was a safe space of diversity, and not, to my experience a hook-up fest, that we were, "across the LGBTQIAP spectrum, people awf Qualahtay!" We all laughed as I raved on and on about Ms. Carrigers writing style and books. A great time was had by all as I described Bumpersnoot!
