My wanting to like ''The Peculiar'' as aside as I can manage, I think, if you like faerie or steampunk fantasy - or both - you'll enjoy it. I did. Truly.
If steampunk is your thing, you'll also enjoy [[Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld]] and [[Ancient Appetites by Oisin McGann]]. I think you'd also have fun with the books about [[The Amulet of Samarkand by Jonathan Stroud|Bartimaeus]] by Jonathan Stroud. You might also enjoy [[Song of the Slums by Richard Harland]].
