I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
I liked, but didn't love this book.
The characters were not thoroughly developed, and they were not likable, as they were selfish and entitled. The writing was good, but overly descriptive, which slowed the book down for me. There were so many "famous and notable" real people that I had never heard of. There were just too many people to keep track of, which made it hard to follow the extremely confusing plot.
The Jazz Age is not for me - the music, writing, and excesses don't sit well with me.
