Chaos is closer than you think

Travel's not my only interest. I am an avid reader, and I always have been.
But it seems to me a good book is hard to find nowadays. For those of you out there who prefer a good reading, here are some books I think you'd enjoy.
Theodosia and the Serpents of Chaos
R.L. LaFevers
A unique book with a main character to die for. Set in the heart of old London, Theodosia Thockmorton lives with her somewhat clueless father in the museum he works at. Her mother is an Egyptologist who keeps sending fascinating Egyptian artifacts to grace the museum's exhibits.
The drawback?
Every artifact is dreadfully cursed. Only the spunky, strong headed and witty girl seems to be able to tell they're even there! While she's got her hands full removing centuries-old curses right under her parents' noses, one of the most deadliest artifacts arrives at the museum. Theodosia now has to rely on a pickpocket, her nosy brother, and a secret society to battle Germans, curses, and her nasty grandmother. The book erupts with mystery, laughter, and ancient magic.
