Book Title: Splendor
Author: Anna Godbersen
Quick Notes: The finale to the fabulous Luxe series, chronicling the lives of Manhattan's hottest socialites.
For Fans Of: Historical fiction, The Luxe series, 1899-1900s, Chick lit
My Overall Rating: A

Pithy Comments: I am a huge fan of The Luxe series, and was not disappointed in this last book in the series. I loved how Godbersen kept me on pins and needles throughout the end and didn't leave any openings. She tied all the loose ends up. I love that! She also had some suprising twists that I never would have expected. This book wasn't quite as good as the first one but was for sure better than the last two. It was great to finally know what happened to Carolina, Diana, Henry, Elizabeth, and Penelope.

The Big Picture: An awesome conclusion to a great series!

Read On!
Yours Truly

Next Up: Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

Note: My readers may have noticed that I said I was going to read The Constant Princess by Philippa Gregory. However, as happens often in the real world, I decided to change books. I changed multiple times, actually. I started with the above book, then went to Second Glances by Jodi Picoult and ended up with this book. Thought you might want to know that :)
