Anna Godbersen Press Reviews
“A big, sumptuous tale of catty girls and dark secrets and windswept
romance unfurls in this readable novel of late 19th century New York
City socialites… Readers with clamour for this sharp, smart drama of
friends, lovers, lies, and betrayals.” Kirkus Reviews
'Bursting with glam parties, beautiful debutantes and a good dose of scandal.' Sugar
‘Mystery, romance, jealousy, betrayal, humour, and gorgeous,
historically- accurate details. Edith Wharton, Jane Austen and Agatha
Christie rolled into one… I couldn’t put The Luxe down!’ – Cecily Von Ziegesar, author of Gossip Girl.
