sarcasticatlady 's review for:

The American Heiress by Daisy Goodwin
4.0

While there were some inaccuracies as to the British aristocracy (tattoos? Really?), this was an enjoyable read and quick despite its length. I found Cora to be true to her generation and upbringing and really loved her in the end. Her mother and mother-in-law were characters to be loathed, and her husband one to be constantly frustrated and intrigued with. It's a book I'd recommend to others suffering "Downton Abbey withdrawals", and one I will be keeping in my library to read again someday.
