Cool! Though I don't like the Gail Carriger book covers, because she mentions at least a hundred times in book one that Alexia 1. is somewhere between curvy and plump and 2. has a significantly dark complexion. And yet on the cover we get a stick-skinny pale white girl! Her only curves come from her bustle and the fact that she's posed at really weird angles. I also noticed in the video they were photoshopping the model to be even skinnier. At least they got the parasol right?

I haven't read the books yet, so I didn't notice that. I did like the Eiffel Tower mistake, and the music is so cute.

I really love the Parasol Protectorate books, so that was a big treat - thanks for the link!
