Rebel Angels (Gemma Doyle #2)

Libba Bray's second book in the Gemma Doyle series is Rebel Angels. It begins a couple of months after the end of A Great and Terrible Beauty.

Gemma, Ann, and Felicity are going back to London for the winter holidays. They must find a way to get together in London so they can enter the realms and continue to look for a way to bind the magic.

On top of finding time and the privacy to travel to the realms, the friends must attend to London society. There will be many dinners, parties, and balls to attend.

Bray captures the feel of Victorian England and the social roles of the time. The combination of a rather rigid social period combined with the magic of the other realms creates a wondrous story.
