We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team. You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. Readers will appreciate her bravery and will certainly root for her to get out safely and take life by the horns.Each review score is between 1-10. This novel, which casts a light upon the frightful treatment of mentally ill women during the 1800s, is full of suspenseful twists and turns, unraveling Louisa’s secrets one by one to reveal the truth of her situation. Why won’t anyone believe her story? Could one of her family members have signed her commitment papers? Did her beloved cousin Grace reveal the secret that Louisa is attracted to women? Might Eliza be Louisa’s salvation…and perhaps the object of her affection as well? Most importantly, though, will she ever be set free? Meanwhile, Louisa’s head is filled with question after question.

Someway, somehow, the two girls are determined to find answers and, with any luck, a way out of the oppressive walls of Wildthorn. Good natured Eliza, a chambermaid who believes Louisa’s story, is determined to help her figure out the mystery surrounding her imprisonment at the asylum. Her situation is beginning to look very fraught indeed until help comes from an unlikely source. The more she insists upon her true identity, though, the more resistance she is given by the matrons and doctors who run Wildthorn and the more abuse and mistreatment she is forced to endure. Louisa knows deep in her heart, though, that she is who she says she is and that she is perfectly sane.

Even worse-she is told upon arrival to Wildthorn Hall that her true name is actually Lucy Childs and that all of her memories are but the delusions of an overactive brain. Following the death of her beloved father, the sole family member to encourage her intellectual pursuits, Louisa is sent away to a home for the mentally disturbed. Bright, curious Louisa Cosgrove, who has very unladlylike aspirations to become a doctor, never thought that her studies could hurt her, yet she finds herself suddenly institutionalized at an asylum all the same. Can too much education drive a girl to the brink of insanity? Residents of Victorian England believed the answer to be yes.
