Book Review - "The Luxe" by Anna Godbersen

Publisher - Harper Collins
Release Date - November 20, 2007
Number of Pages - 433








Haven't posted a review in a while, so here you go!
The summary:
In the self-contained world of young Gilded Age Manhattan socialites, Elizabeth and Diana Holland reign supreme. Or so it seems. Scratch the surface, though, and you can detect festering jealousies that threaten to topple them. Elizabeth suffers a more literal fall when her carriage overturns and she is carried away by the swift East River current.


Pros
- Scandals, secrets, drama! So intense!
- THE COVER!
- Each chapter started with either an invitation, newspaper article or something like that. That was really cool.
- The setting ( New York in 1899) is very believable.
- Well-written

Cons
- Well, if you think about it...I've got nothing

Amazing book!
5/5
