Sorcery & Cecilia or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot by Patricia C. Wrede and Caroline Stevermer
Sorcery & Cecelia is a tale told in letters between Cecelia and her cousin Kate. Patricia C. Wrede writes for one girl and Caroline Stevermer for the other. They write their own stories but the stories overlap in character and the magical plots go back and forth with their letters.
It's an interesting device and the story holds up well since each is supported by her own letters and descriptions of events. The stories are a glimpse into the restricted Victorian society of which I know NOTHING am I am not able to comment on authenticity or detail.
