Book Overview
A New York Times Bestseller
Nicolette's awful stepsisters call her "Mechanica" to demean her, but the nickname fits: she learned to be an inventor at her mother's knee. Her mom is gone now, though, and the Steps have pushed her into a life of dreary servitude. When she discovers a secret workshop in the cellar on her sixteenth birthday--and befriends Jules, a tiny magical metal horse--Nicolette starts to imagine a new life for herself. And the timing may be perfect: There's a technological exposition and a royal ball on the horizon. Determined to invent her own happily-ever-after, Mechanica seeks to wow the prince and eager entrepreneurs alike.

Amazing
Published by Amanda Drain , 7 years ago
I was absolutely blown away by the story line. At first glance, you assume it's just another Cinderella spin off, but it's way more than that. I absolutely recommend this book to anyone that liked fantasy books. I can't wait to get my hands on the sequel.
