The Social Graces by Renée Rosen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Immerse yourself and be transported to the lavishly wonderful Gilded Age in New York City. This historical fiction follows the high society families and runs from 1876 through 1908. The story focuses on Caroline Astor ("Knickerbocker" Old Money) and Alva Vanderbilt (Nouveau Riche), and includes details of extravagant balls, summers at their Newport "cottages", and life in society. This is the first book that I've ready by Renee Rosen, and it came highly recommended. I will definitely be reading more in the near future!
