Oh ffs. DNF at 230 pages. I. Am. Done. I loved the first 2 books in this series but this one makes my eyes want to bleed. Henry is like a mindless ping pong ball that only thinks with his little ping pong dick. Penelope is so evil it is hard to believe she is a real character. Carolina's selfish...

The main focus of Envy is on the relationship between Penelope, Henry, and Diana. Lina and Elizabeth still have a role to play, but it's not quite as important.A good amount of the plot in this one revolves around Henry trying to get out of his marriage, while Penelope tries to make him stay. It bec...

As always, the cover is beautiful. I only wish I loved the book as much as I love the cover. I hate to say this, but the ending just wasn't satisfying for me. Maybe my problem is that I think things weren't resolved well for the characters. Yes, there's another book, but I just couldn't see how anyt...

Up until this point, I haven't been too impressed with The Luxe series, with both the first and second books earning three stars each from me.

This entire series was, indeed, Gossip Girl for the 19th century set. Or a soap opera. Godbersen's positively a sadist regarding her characters though, one tragedy after another! Definitely a good guilty pleasure.

This series is just so amazing!I must say, I did not see that ending coming. It was difficult to not immediately start the next one after reading that!

Beautiful. Completely beautiful. Anna Godberson has captivated me with a series which has caused me to feel every range of emotion from joy to heartbreak, and repeatedly at that. I'm almost tempted to give this 5 stars for being able to read something that makes me "feel" after reading so many bo...
