Readers of my blog might remember that I had mixed feelings about Luxe book 1 of the Luxe series. Now that I have finished book two I know two things for certain. First, I love Diana Holland and want to continue to reading anything about her. Second, I hate Penelope Hayes and would like to see her downfall. I am indeed blessed because there are more books in the Luxe series. I'm quite excited about the prospects Envy might hold.
Anna like Prologues that allude to the conclusion. That was my largest gripe in book one. However in book two she beautifully creates allusion to the conclusion, while creating a mystery around the actualities. It was utterly fantastically crafted.4 out of 5 stars.

I would like to read the Luxe series. I bought them a while back and they are still sitting on my pile of unread books... I love the bookcovers, really luxe.. Since you're giving it 4/5 stars, I guess it's worth my money afterall:)
ReplyDeletei just adore the dresses on the covers. if anything i should finally get them to enjoy the insides as well. glad to hear its a good series so far.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear that you liked the second book better than the first. I purchased Luxe a few months ago (mostly due to cover-love), but I haven't gotten around to reading it yet. I look forward to seeing if I share your opinions about Diana & Penelope.
