Wow, I really thought this would be an epic read based on the review and price but boy was I mistaken. I hated each and every single character in this book, not a single one was likable! The plot is lost to me and quite frankly I could care less at this point. It was so drawn out and predictable I had to skim through most of it. If you are into pretentious, back stabbing, lying, manipulative young men and women with absolutely no depth or decency then this is a book for you! As for me, I felt cheated out of my time and money on this one and unfortunately I will not give this author a second chance on any other of her books.Tags : Amazon.com: The Luxe (9780061345661): Anna Godbersen: Books,Anna Godbersen,The Luxe,HarperCollins,0061345660,Girls & Women,Historical - United States - 19th Century,Social Themes - General (see also headings under Family),Conduct of life;Fiction.,Social classes;Fiction.,Wealth;Fiction.,Children's Books - Young Adult Fiction,Children: Young Adult (Gr. 10-12),Conduct of life,Fiction,Fiction-Historical,Historical Fiction (Young Adult),JUVENILE,Juvenile Fiction,Juvenile Fiction Girls & Women,Juvenile Fiction Historical United States General,Juvenile Fiction Social Issues Adolescence,Juvenile Grades 10-12 Ages 15+,Monograph Series, any,New York,Social Issues - General,Social classes,TEEN'S FICTION HISTORICAL,United States,Wealth,YOUNG ADULT FICTION,YOUNG ADULT FICTION Girls & Women,YOUNG ADULT FICTION Historical United States 19th Century,YOUNG ADULT FICTION Social Themes General (see also headings under Family)
The Luxe Anna Godbersen Books Reviews
This novel had everything I like, romance, drama, scandal, backstabbing friends, murder, and mystery. I didn't realize this book is part of a 3 book series when I downloaded it as a free book; however, I am hooked so I will definitely keep reading. Hopefully books 2 and 3 are just as good as this one.
Luxe is about Elizabeth whose mother demands that she marry a wealthy man, whom she is not in love with, and whom her best friend and sister are both in love with. Liz is in love with someone else who requests she move West with him to begin a new life.
Okay - it wasn't great fiction. BUT - it enthralled my 16 year old daughter, who is not a great reader. She read it cover to cover and asked for the rest of the series. I enjoyed her stopping mid page, and telling me about the characters. I enjoyed her enthusiasm the the gusto with which she devoured the book.
So if you have a teen who loves historical times, romance, intrigue and drama but perhaps lacks the intellectual depth to really pursue Jane Austen or the like - then this series really wouldn't be a bad choice.
There;s a lot of innuendoes to sexual encounters and even starts out with a young girl in the closet with an older gentleman. I don't think its very appropriate for young girls. Read at your own risk
I felt this was a great book from the time period. I enjoy reading books from different time periods and this made me feel transported back in time. It was a little predicable but still an excellent read.
I’ve read this book three times! I love it, I’m excited to read the rest of the series! I already received books 2-4 because they had better shipping plans but I know what happens in the first so I can move on to the 2nd!
Wow, this book was a surprise to me. I figured that the historical details might be lost in a typical young adult novel but I was wrong! The historical aspect of this book was so detailed and added so much depth to the story. I loved reading about these rich-kid type teens and how their lives were, living in high-society New York City. The plot and storylines were scandalous and enticing. Each chapter is follows one character and the book jumps back and forth between then throughout. It was fun to read about one character, then see how his or her actions affects one of the other characters.
Overall, this was a great young adult story with lost of plot turns and forbidden love. But the historical details made the book really enjoyable to read and so out of the ordinary and different in a world of vampire loves stories!
I love this book! Those were my first 4 words that I thought after finishing this novel. It centers around Elizabeth Holland's world from her true love (someone her family would not approve of) to her betrothed (someone she doesn't care for but will marry as a duty to her family), her little fiery sister Diana who realizes that she doesn't have to go very far to quench her thirst for adventure, Elizabeth's lady's maid Lina who despises Elizabeth, and lastly Penelope Hayes, Elizabeth's bff with an ulterior motive of her own. Nothing is what it seems that fall in New York and the mystery deepens as the tone is set from page one at Elizabeth's funeral and then hops to a couple weeks earlier and the twisting and turning of events that led to Elizabeth's untimely demise.
