The Electrical Venus is split it two narrative which are Mims and Alex point of views, I liked the fact that they were telling their story to their pets. As someone who talks to her dogs, I really like that element.
I have always been fascinated with history, so I enjoyed reading a book based in eighteen century England. I loved how real Julie has made the book feel, even if the treatment of women made the feminist in my very angry.
I admired the way in which Julie dealt with the subject disability (Alex missing his arm) and race. I loved the fact that these factor do not impact how they see each other.
I also don’t know if it to do with my age, that sometimes I wanted to shake Mims and set her straight, although this happened less and less as the story continued.
This book was a slow burn for me but I was entertained throughout, I really enjoyed who this story ended I thought it was perfect for the story.
This book reminded me about A Jigsaw of Fire and Stars and Daughter of a Burning City, due to the different mixture of people and traveling performance.
I give this book 3.8 out of 5.
