I hadn't planned on continuing with this series, but this audiobook was available and I decided to listen.
I enjoyed the story for the most part. Lady Cecily is once again in trouble. Her despotic father has locked her in her room with no clothing (other than a nightgown), no books, and no art supplies. Enola is determined to rescue her.
The part I didn't like in this story was the continual emphasis on Lady Cecily's two personalities - her "left-handed" persona of strength, determination, and creativity, and her "right-handed" weak, docile, and vapid personality. It just got old after a while.
Overall, Springer has done a delightful job with these books. I like the interplay between Enola and her brother Sherlock. I really liked the playfulness between Enola and her usual cabbie Harold. Fun!
