Splendor By Anna Godbersen

SPOILER ALERT:

Splendor by Anna Godbersen

Okay, everyone who is reading along with me the Luxe Series must be highly disappointed! If you are not then please tell me what in the world was the point to this book if the characters didn't even end up together in the end! Seriously! I was rooting for Henry and Diana since the beginning. This book has shocked me, bored me, and left me speechless (sometimes in a bad way). But I never stopped reading because I just had to know what the end results were going to be. Let me tell you that Anna really threw me in a loop in this book. I was soooo upset by the end that I regretted wasting my money and time to buy these books. I'm so sorry for anyone who went and bought these books and was as disappointed as I was. I truly am, I had no idea that this was going to be a twist right at the very end when happy endings are suppose to happen! Come on Anna, you can get away with messing with the relationships in the second even third book but the final book! Just fix them up again! Why couldn't you give us a bone to mull over the perfect, romantic relationship these two (Henry and Di) individuals had! I love being wrapped up in a fantasy and I just felt that this book really brought you down to something worse than reality. Well, at least this is the end and I wont have to suffer any longer! 

Now that I've finished my rant on how mad I got when I finished that last chapter!

On to real fantasy with dragons and magic! I know that will NEVER disappoint!

Book Review: Envy By Anna Godbersen

Spoiler Alert!!!! 

Here we go reviewing the third book in the Luxe series by Anna Godbersen. Envy is about the life after Henry and Penelope get married. We see what each character feels and thinks as they go throw many difficult times in their lives. The story is wonderful and leaves you wnting more. Of course there are some very slow parts and the "Oh My God!" parts. The end is so romantic and heroic I just need to read the final book Splendor. If you have a chance for a quick easy fun romantic read pick this one up! 

Stay tuned for Spledor.

Books Are Sacred

My current reads are Envy By Anna Godbersen and The Hunger Games by Suzzane Collins. Of course this just adds up since I have yet to finish the other three books! One mandatory book for school is "Sense and Sensibility" but it's already the third time I read the book so I'm not too worried about the test on it. 

Have any of you read The Hunger Games? I know it's getting really popular because of the movie coming out soon! Can't wait to go see it!

Rumors By Anna Godbersen

Rumors is the sequel to Luxe by Anna Godbersen. The Luxe series are about the Socialites of old Manhattan set back in 1899. If you love fashion, drama and a good mystery here's a quick read for you! The series consists of four books. Rumors is the second and I just finished it in just a week! Wow, in the end it was such a great story! It leaves you wanting to get your hands on the next. Unfortunetly the Barnes and Noble in my area ran out of the third book, Envy! Is that possible??
  Well Rumors isn't my favorite, so far Luxe is still the top book. But it had it's romantic parts, slow parts and shocking parts! I admit most will NOT like this at all but I'm praying the next two books in the series will be better! I hope. :S
 I hope you guys get a chance to read it! Let me know if there are similar books like the Luxe Series! I really want to start reading more of those genres!!

Comment below and let me know if you have read recommendable books please! Anything Luxe, Gossip Girl, It Girl related. Even set back in the Victorian era!

Luxe By Anna Godbersen

I read this book a few months ago and never got a chance to write a review! I think this is pretty similar to Gossip Girl since it is set in New York but in the 1890's!! Specifically 1899 at the end of the year and of the turn of the century. It deals with the society women of the era and the elite society of New York. I love the way Anna told the story though some scenes are very slow. I have two favorite characters: Henry and Diana! Ugh they are amazing and have the best story to tell!! 

Anna discribes the ladies elaborate dresses, the fancy parties and events that  happen in the story with full detail and passion. I can't help but fall in love with the era and the fashion! The life style in that time was luxiorious, of course only for the rich and wealthy class. 

I wish I could travel back and see life in that time. 

Do you have a favorite series? I'd love to know!

For now the Luxe series are top on the list! My next read is Rumors the sequel to Luxe!!
