charlottelynn 's review for:
The Most Beautiful Girl in Cuba
by Chanel Cleeton
A story of The Most Beautiful Girl in Cuba standing up for her country and calling for America to help Cuba defeat the Spanish and give Cuba the freedom they desire. Every part of this historical fiction book gave me insight into life during a war. The camps that citizens were forced into, the prisons they lived in, and the love they lost and found during a time of unrest all brought the story to life and gave me a new view of Cuban history.
The story newspaper moguls, Hearst and Pulitzer, fighting to be the biggest paper in New York during the Gilded Age was interesting. I loved Grace and the fact that she stepped outside of the usual woman roles by becoming a stunt writer. She pushes the boundaries and succeeds in reaching her goals.
Chantel Cleeton writes about the women in Cuba with a style that pulls the reader in, brings Cuba to life, and teaches the history in a fictional book with as much truth as possible.
