In The Misadventures of an Amateur Naturalist, Ceinwen Langley follows Celeste Rossan, a young would-be naturalist whose plans for exploration collapse when her family’s fortunes disappear. Grasping at a final chance for independence, she sets out for Paris and the 1867 Exposition Universelle, only to be forced by a storm into an apparently deserted chateau. Inside, Celeste encounters a mysterious, intelligent predator unlike any creature she has studied, and her scientific curiosity soon tangles with unexpected attraction. Blending historical fiction with fantasy, romance, and monsters, this queer young adult adventure centers on a determined lesbian heroine testing the limits of courage, trust, and desire.
