2011 book 132

Jennifer Bradley's Wrapped
It's the 1800s, and a young woman--who knows a bunch of languages and loves Jane Austen--gets caught up in a mystery involving mummies and Napoleon. Plus there's a little romance. Fun story, though really overwritten at times (a lone tear trailing down a cheek, way too much talking-not-showing re: romantic feelings). Still, entertaining, and I liked the end a lot. B/B+.
