Rendition As Books Manners & Mutiny (Finishing School #4)
If one must flirt...flirt with danger.Lessons in the art of espionage aboard Mademoiselle Geraldine's floating dirigible have become tedious without Sophronia's sootie Soap nearby. She would rather thwart dastardly Picklemen, yet her concerns about their wicked intentions are ignored.
Who can she trust? Royal werewolf dewan? Stylish vampire Lord Akeldama? Only one thing is certain: a large-scale plot is under way. Sophronia must be ready to save her friends, her school, and all of London from disaster.

This was a nice ending to the series, pretty on par with the quality of the rest of the books, so if you liked those, you'll like this one, too. I've just been slightly underwhelmed with this series as a whole, so I was just slightly underwhelmed with this book in the same way. I got really excited about the ending of the third book, but she didn't really take it anywhere super exciting, just medium exciting. I did like the last two books more than I liked the first two, so the series does haveI can't believe this is the last book! SOB! I loved this series. I've listened to all four on audio - the narrator, Moira Quirk is fantastic and she has read all of Gail Carriger's audio books - well, all the ones I've listened to - Finishing School and the Parasol protectorate series (and the Prudence series, of which I listened to the first book).The books are just plain fun and they're set in the generation before Alexia and her Parasol. I had a long drive to upstate New York and home, and
So, this was the final part of the Finishing School series. While the first book was more suitable for the middle school age group (the characters were still rather childish), as the series has progressed, the characters have grown into young women, and this book is definitely of the YA variety, with a strong romance storyline (which started in the previous book already).

And so this specific story comes to an end. A story that I had originally avoided because I'm not really into reading young adult books set back in the 19th century England set in a finishing school. And, yes this part is particularly important, mixed up somehow with 'Steampunk' (a genre I've rarely liked (the exception to that 'rarely liked' is, oddly enough, that prior series I'd read by Gail Carriger (which this series here, Finishing School, is a prequel).My reasons for avoiding the series
[4.5 Stars]THE PARASOL PROTECTORATE FEELS ARE STRONG Y'ALL!
SpoilersThe prequel series has mostly been a let down, it has none of the charm and humour and adventure as the The Parasol Protectorate books. The best thing about the series has been the great friendships and some of the secondary characters. The overarching plot on the other hand has had very few points of interest, the whole picklemen thing was too silly and boring for words. Worst of all Sophronia was an unlikeable dry bore, she had no spark whatsoever. It didn't help that she was paired
