Libba Bray's Trilogy

I read all of them over Christmas break. They were not my typical genre of reading. I was anticipating a romance type series, however, I stumbled upon a world of magic and fantasy worlds unlike anything I've read before. I would recommend it to certain people who generally enjoy that type of thing. Most people I've talked to about the books either loved them or couldn't "get into them." They were well written, the author seems like someone I would enjoy as a person, I would like to read something else from her.
Great and Terrible Beauty: Rebel Angels:
The Sweet Far Thing:
I would give them collectively a 3 and one half stars out of 5.
