The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion, Vol. 2
Book 2 of the The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion series
Emma’s first months back in St. Crispian’s continue as she settles more firmly into Lapis Lazuli House and the neighborhood begins to feel like home. Her hopes for scholarship and sensible routine keep colliding with Aunt Eugenia’s interference, Cousin Archibald’s eccentricities, and neighbors who refuse to remain merely acquaintances. New friendships deepen while unanswered questions around Emma’s family and circumstances continue to tug at her attention. Told through Emma’s sharply observant journal, the volume balances Victorian social comedy with the gradual formation of a chosen community.
