I love historical fiction, I love reading about how life was before I was born, I love seeing how humanity has grown as a whole and how it has changed, yet stayed so much the same. I recently reread Envy by Anna Godbersen and read Splendor also by Anna Godbersen. The books are based on the turn of the twenty century. The book revolves around five main characters and follows their lives as they enter New York society and become the people they are. There is lots of scandal, fighting, and forbidden romance in this book. Even though it is based in 1900 many of the issues that the characters face are similar to those today. When I am reading these books I feel like I am walking down the street and am experiencing what the characters are. I like how the author puts you in the scene through her descriptive language and sensory images. I would recommend this book to girls who like historical fiction and books filled with scandal, love, and fashion. It is defiantly worth the read.
