Synopsis: For the bright young things of 1929, the beautiful days seem endless, filled with romance and heartbreak, adventure and intrigue, friendship and rivalry.
My review: This was such a great sequel to Bright Young Things! I loved how the direction of this story is going. I felt more deeply connected to the characters in this novel and found myself rooting for them more and wanting to find out what was going to happen next.
I am still absolutely loving the setting of the 1920’s in New York and all the descriptions of the glitz and glamour of all the descriptions, from the dresses to the buildings to the girls themselves. Everyone always seems so luxurious and their lives seem perfect but then you dive deeper beneath the surface and realize even the rich and slightly famous have their own problems as well.
More characters were also introduced and we learned more about their backstory’s which was interesting and added a completely new layer to the story. I like how the rivalry between the two bootlegger’s family is playing out and can’t wait to get my hands on the last book to see how everything ends!
