In a vastly different and darker Philadelphia of 1844, steam power has been repressed, war threatens from deep, dark waters, and one young lady of high social standing is expecting a surprise at her seventeenth birthday party–but certainly not the one she gets!
Jordan Astraea, who has lived out all of her life in Philadelphia's most exclusive neighborhood, is preparing to celebrate her birthday with friends, family and all the extravagance they might muster. The young man who is most often her dashing companion, Rowen Burchette, has told her a surprise awaits her and her best friend, Catrina Hollindale, wouldn't miss this night for all the world!
But storm clouds are gathering and threatening to do far more than dampen her party plans because someone in the Astraea household has committed the greatest of social sins by Harboring a Weather Witch.

My first review of Weather Witch
My Review:
I had such a great time reading this book again! I never finished this series, so I had to reread it before I could continue on, and I'm glad, because it was basically like reading it for the first time, with just over a decade since I first read it!

This world of Weather Witches was so interesting to read about, how it worked, and the politics, because most of history, it's not kind to witches, and that they actually have magic, they are feared, and humans are not nice to those they fear.
That it's set in this time period, it's an interesting time to be a lady, with all the societal mores that they were expected to uphold. So watching as Jordan went on this adventure, yeah, that wasn't what she should have been doing, but it was so great to read!
What with the way things ended, I'm glad that I can now finally continue on, and see where the story goes from here! I need the answers, and to spend more time in this world with these characters, because they're so enjoyable to read about!
Loved reading this book, and I can't wait to continue on!
