Waistcoats & Weaponry (Finishing School #3) by Gail Carriger

Summary: Sophronia continues second year finishing school in style -- with a steel-bladed fan secreted in the folds of her ball gown. She, best friend Dimity, sweet sootie Soap, and charming Lord Felix Mersey stow away on train to return classmate Sidheag to her werewolf pack in Scotland. No one suspects what or who would be aboard the suspiciously empty train.



My Favorite Quotes: 
“That's a very murky position," objected Felix.
"So's the weather. But this is England, we must learn to live with uncertainty.”
― Gail Carriger, Waistcoats & Weaponry




My review: This book was by far one of the best in Gail Carriger's Finishing School series ! I loved Sophronia's character development, and  we got to see so much emotion from her. The language and dialogue is as fun and witty as ever, and honestly this series just keeps getting better and better.
Such a great read! It took me a moment to get my head back into the characters, but then the escapades just took over. Sophronia's plans - or lack thereof - for her future, the conflicting demands of friendship (or more) and loyalty, and lessons in fighting with fans all mingle in a wonderful mess of scrapes, foibles and general fun.
