A review by jennamorrison
The Rise and Fall of Becky Sharp by Sarra Manning

4.0

This modern take on Vanity Fair is fun and witty. Those who have read the original will recognise the characters and their trails, but in a very different setting.

Becky meets Amelia on Big Brother, which is the perfect introduction for those who have not read the original as Becky is the stereotypical contestant - self-centred and fame hungry. The characters work so well in a modern setting, and Sarra Manning has done a brilliant job of bringing them up to date.

Whether you have read the original or not, this is a great read.
