A School For Unusual Girls
Romance · Teen + Young Adult · Historical Romance · Regency Romance
Our take
Kathleen Baldwin’s A School for Unusual Girls—called “completely original and totally engrossing” by Meg Cabot—mixes Regency romance and espionage with 4.5 out of 5 stars on Amazon. At Stranje House, rebellious girls are trained as spies, not wives, and Georgie must partner with a dashing inventor to help win a war without losing her heart.
Choose your retailer
About the book
In 1814, Britain is at war on four fronts, Europe is in ruins, and Stranje House hides one of England’s most dangerous secrets. Officially, it’s where rebellious young ladies are “reformed” into perfect society wives. In reality, Headmistress Emma Stranje trains them as spies and diplomats.
After setting her father’s stables ablaze during a scientific experiment, Miss Georgiana Fitzwilliam is sent to Stranje House. Georgie has no interest in becoming a docile debutante—she plans to escape.
But when she’s paired with the infuriatingly brilliant Lord Sebastian Wyatt to develop invisible ink for the war effort, plans change. Soon she’s navigating espionage, sabotage, and a war that could consume them both.
Because in this school, survival means learning to fight with brains, bravery, and maybe even your heart.

But the closer she gets, the more the line blurs between playing the game and becoming part of it.
What if victory costs her the very thing she’s fighting for?
