The Luxe Series #1: You'll love it if you love romance, scandal & the 1890's
Welcome to 'The Luxe' Series Appreciation Thread by Anna Godbersen The Luxe A big, sumptuous tale of catty girls, dark secrets and windswept romance unfurls in this compulsively readable novel of late-19th-century New York City socialites. Godbersen weaves a tenuous web of deceit, backstabbing and pretense that follows four teens: Elizabeth Holland, a prim and proper lady of old-money society, is betrothed to one man, though furtively loves another; Henry Schoonmaker, a debauched playboy who must marry Elizabeth or be disinherited; Diana Holland, Elizabeth’s younger sister who is in love with her fiancé; and Penelope Hayes, a member of the nouveau riche who will stop at nothing to win Henry’s affections. As Elizabeth and Henry’s wedding approaches, the spectacle unfolds in a wondrously grandiose scene, making for a fun, though not entirely unexpected dénouement. A delicious new twist along the Gossip Girl vein, readers will clamor for this sharp, smart drama of friends, lovers, lies and betrayal. Official Site The Luxe Books Webiste __________________

Are you on the 2nd book yet? There's lots of Elizabeth/Will in that one, but the end is sad.
Have you seen the cover for the 4th book? __________________

Oh, right. You were spoiled for the ending right?
Here's the cover: I think it's Lina on the cover too. I remember reading an article with the author and she said Elizabeth was on the first one, Penelope was on the 2nd one, and Diana was on the third. Aw, you have a Henry quote in your signature! __________________
