5.0

This book is really written as a guide to writers, but if you have any interest in the Regency and Victorian eras, you'll probably enjoy this.

I loved this quick overview of how people lived in the Regency and Victorian periods. It was very helpful to get a general sense of what was possible and probable 200+ years ago. This did spoil some classic books, which was a bummer. While it was fun to see those references, the writing style was fun enough without it. I also loved how this debunked common myths about those eras and definitely helped burst my daydreams of living back then - in a good way!
