I have always found the 1920s interesting, and am thrilled to see that there is finally some YA literature out there that takes place during the period. Thanks for the wicked awesome review, Alison! :)Emihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15900657609490291845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-18791454064037187912011-01-13T16:23:05.737-06:002011-01-13T16:23:05.737-06:00I totally agree - this book is very description he...I totally agree - this book is very description heavy, and sometimes it's just not needed. This is the first Godbersen book I've read, and it took me a while to warm to it. I got to like it towards the end though, so I will read the next book in the series!Leanna Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156147175772720617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1798065526948874468.post-28827503719360204812011-01-13T14:40:30.231-06:002011-01-13T14:40:30.231-06:00Great review!
