Scales and Sensibility

This was incredibly cute and a fun read. Of course, I'm a sucker for anything with a cute magical pet in it, and our two protagonists were lovely, but I think my favorite character in the book was the poor scholarly Mr. Aubrey, beset on all sides by people insisting on him participating in society, the horror! (I have often felt the same, Mr. Aubrey.) So, since it seems he's one of the protagonists in the sequel, I may jump right on in there for my next read.
