Portrait of a Scotsman is my absolute favourite of the League of Extraordinary Women so far. I loved Hattie and Lucien's relationship and how they both grew as people. I also really loved Lucien's acknowledgement of Hattie's need for space and to be herself. I did not anticipate the socialist turn in the last third of the book and I was here for it.
