pick78/150 An interesting look at one of the pivotal years in American history. While the author does stray from his subject at times, he does detailed work discussing the causes that led to monumental events of 1920, and also discusses the ramifications those events had on future generations. 3 ⭐⭐⭐ 1/2
3/15 for #Rushathon (I'm behind my pace) @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES @Andrew65
pickAnother set in 1920s NYC. I will definitely be reading the sequel.
so-soI like the 1920s, and while I enjoyed historical aspects of this book (e.g. the slang and fashion), it seemed to be missing some things (like any awareness of the Great War or the Spanish Flu epidemic). A bit (actually, maybe more than a bit) idealized, but still a relatively enjoyable read.
