The Socialite by J'nell Ciesielski
4.0
I loved this book. Right from the moment I picked up this book until the last page, I was swept up into this world and the lives of Kat, Ellie, and Barrett.
Kat is definitely the voice of reason. Whereas, her sister, Ellie was living in a bubble. The war was on their doorstep and they were walking through it but yet Ellie just wanted to live in the moment with planning parties and enjoying the luxury of dating a high ranking military man.
Barrett is a gentleman, not to mention has tons of patience. He was tested over and over again but he never fully gave in to his anger. There is a bit of romance between Kat and Barrett. However, it was not the man focal point of the story. Which I liked a lot as this story is a historical story and not a romance one. I recommend this book to anyone who loves to read historical fiction books. J'Nell Ciesielski swept me away into the pages of this story with a rich storyline and engaging characters with The Socialite.
