Oh boy, where do I begin with this? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I loved Natasha Pulley\u2019s second book, The Bedlam Stacks<\/em>, it had a well-developed and interesting plot with characters that I, for the most part, liked. The Bedlam Stacks<\/em> could be read as queer, and I definitely interpreted it that way, but whether there truly is a romance or not is never actually stated within the pages of the book. I knew that The Watchmaker of Filigree Street<\/em> on the other hand did have an actual M\/M romance, so I was excited to dive in.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street<\/em> follows Thaniel, a telegraph clerk for the British Government. On his birthday, Thaniel finds a mysterious pocket watch on his pillow. Six months later the watch saves his life, blaring an alarm only minutes before a bomb destroys Scotland Yard. Thaniel seeks out the watchmaker, Keita Mori, for answers, but only comes away with more questions. Could Mori be involved in the plan to bomb Scotland Yard? And if so, why did he save Thaniel?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What starts out as a promising mystery fades to the\nbackground of a story that I found to lack cohesiveness and consistency.  I loved the slow burn romance. So slow burn\nthat it sparked a whole debate on Goodreads with people surprised by Thaniel\nand Mori\u2019s romantic climax. However, that is pretty much all that enjoyed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Watchmaker of Filigree Street<\/em> is a book that is trying to be too many things, while not really fulfilling any of them. I would call it a historical fantasy romance, leaning more in the way of a historical romance with small fantasy elements; However, the romance was relatively understated and was overwhelmed with a marriage of convenience plot that devolved into jealousy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nstory lacks a cohesiveness and consistency because it is trying to be too much.\nI felt like the plot would tie back into the original mystery thread when\nconvenient, but not consistently. I found the inconsistency to be particularly\nfrustrating because many of the side plots were not very interesting and\nfollowed characters I really disliked. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For\nme, the worst part of the plot problem was the climax. The climax doesn\u2019t tie\ninto the bomb plotline that starts everything in any meaningful way. I thought\nthat the climax was going to be a turning point for Grace (a character who I\nwill go into more detail about shortly) that would make her into a proper\nantagonist for the story; that her plan would use the fact that Mori was a\nsuspect in the Scotland Yard bombing. But the climax doesn\u2019t tie in like that,\nand Grace doesn\u2019t change and fails for me as a character. I really want to\nexpound on this point, but I can\u2019t without too many spoilers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\nwill say, however, that if another side character, Yuki, had carried out Grace\u2019s\nplot during the climax, most of the plotlines would have tied together very\ncleanly and there wouldn\u2019t have been so much wasted potential.
\n
\nOnto Grace. I don\u2019t\nknow why Grace was a POV character. Her characterization was a mess. She\u2019s not\nlike other girlsTM <\/sup>. Other girls are vapid, and study literature in\ncollege, and should never get the right to vote because they would go to war\nover someone looking at them wrong; whereas, she\u2019s smart, and does physics, and\nhas short hair, and sneaks into  the\nlibrary unaccompanied by dressing like a man. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grace does not progress through a character arc and grow\nas a character; instead, she took on traits that were at odds with her prior characterization\nwith no explanation. As we neared the climax, I thought that she was going to\nbecome a proper antagonist in the story, but instead her master plan is\nself-centred and doesn’t serve the purpose she intended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe\nGrace is supposed to be a barrier in Thaniel and Mori’s relationship to bring\nin more external conflict, but I don\u2019t feel like that was particularly\nbelievable in the writing. She and Thaniel choose to get married as,\nessentially, a business arrangement, but suddenly she gets jealous about how\nmuch time Thaniel and Mori spend together, and constantly tries to drive them\napart. It felt overly derived and at odds with Grace\u2019s independence and\nsupposedly logical existence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oh,\nand get ready for all of the historical racism. It gets exhausting to read the\nwords \u201cdirty chinamen\u201d more than once. I feel like there are better ways to\naddress racism in historical fiction than to constantly have slurs thrown\naround, especially when the work of fiction is written by a white woman. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite all of this, I still pre-ordered (and then was later approved for an ARC) of the direct sequel to The Watchmaker of Filigree Street<\/em>. I\u2019m hoping that without Grace in the story, I can enjoy the next book more. Next week, we will find out if I made the right choice. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
