Book of the Month- February (Steph)

I've finished another book for another month.  (Two for two, that's not bad for me!)


This month I decided to read The Luxe by Anna Godbersen.  It's a young adult book that takes place in Manhattan on the late 1800's.  It's around the same time period as all the Masterpiece classics I love to watch, so that was what initially drew me to the book.  The book has all of the things we love about these period stories: romance, secrets, jealousy, and most importantly, keeping up appearances and propriety.  It was a little predictable (likely due to the age-group it was written for), but the end didn't disappoint.  It's easy  to read and easy to get into.  Overall I liked it.  There are a couple more books in the series, so I'll probably be reading those over the next couple of months.

Happy reading!
