I really enjoyed this book and thought it captured the atmosphere of the period nicely, I especially liked the author's technique of including extra snippets of historical detail and details relating to the story such as newspaper articles, journal entries and facts. Moth and Sadie were appealing characters. The one criticism I would have is that the plot sometimes seemed to meander a little, particularly around the middle and in the second half. Nevertheless, I'm sure I'll looked for the planned sequel. It reminded me a little of the Observations by Jane Harris, particularly the first part.
