I'd start with the Alchemist's Daughter, myself, just because I like the typeface used on the cover.
Theodora Goss is a wonderful writer. The book is basically about the daughters of famous fictional mad scientists meeting up in Victorian London and kind of accidentally starting a detective agency. They’re a lot of fun and Sherlock Holmes even gets dragged into it. The ladies are the daughters of Jekyll and Hyde, a female Frankenstein, a cat lady from Moreau’s island and a poisonous plant lady courtesy of Rappacini.
