Well, um, that was cute, I guess. It's set in Australia, which is why I read it. Sometimes I notice strangely bare shelves and it bothers me. The historical perspective, technology (very mildly steampunk), plot and characterization are remarkably convenient and lacking all tension, which I think is actually a bit of a flaw - theres never really any conflict. Otherwise, well, cute.
Datepalm
