I loved the plot line and drama in this book. I really got into to it and could not put it down. Plus I love books that are based on the roaring twenties. What it must to be like to live in those times!!Everything in the story was describe well. The characters were loud and out there. The reader got...

3.5 starsThis new series by Anna Godbersen is centered around 3 girls in the 1920's. At first I was concerned that this would end up being too similar to her Luxe series, but fortunately it was not. I enjoyed this book but it didn't get very interesting until the last half. The beginning is a bit sl...

This one was okay. I didn't think it was as good as The Luxe. It didn't really hold my interest. Sad.

I really enjoyed reading this book. I think I even liked it better than The Luxe series.Though I did think that, once the girls got to New York, things started happening too fast and too conveniently (specially Cordelia). On the other hand, if things were too slow, the book would drag and end up bei...

The main character of this book, Cordelia Grey and her friend Letty Larkspur have fled their small town in Ohio for two very different rea...

3.5. It took me a few pages to get into the story, but I did. I liked the girls and I'm interested in following their lives. I will definitely keep reading this series. I liked it better than the first Luxe book. Now, I have to go and read the others. =)I would have given it 4 stars, but I'm still u...

For most of the book, I was bound and determined to give it 3 stars. I was alright with the story but not overly impressed. The characters were fine, but I'm still partial to Diana and Henry from this author's other series The Luxe.Then, the last 75 pages hooked me from out of nowhere. I should h...

A little torn with how to rate this book. I enjoyed it, but I didn't love it. Between a 3.5 and 3.9.
