Scribbler of Dreams by Mary E. Pearson
Kaitlin Malone hates the Crutchfields. For all her life, she’s been told that the Crutchfields are at fault for all the Malone’s problems.
immediately. As well as attracting me to the book, it also turned out to be a perfect fit. was a book I couldn’t put down. I found myself trying to focus on something (namely, schoolwork), only to end up being distracted by my thoughts on the book, giving in to read just one more chapter. Of course, things didn’t turn out that way, and I finished this book within a few hours. It was certainly worth the time spent.

Summary from Goodreads:
Bright Young Things is the first in an epic four-book series about three teenage girls finding their way in the glittering metropolis of New York City and the glamorous mansions of Long Island. It’s 1929 and Letty Larkspur and Cordelia Grey have escaped their small Midwestern town to chase big dreams and even bigger secrets. In New York, they meet Astrid Donal, a flapper who has everything she could ever want, except for the one thing Letty and Cordelia have to offer—true friendship. Set in the dizzying summer before the market crash, against the vast lawns of the East End and on the blindingly lit stages of Broadway, the three girls will find romance, intrigue, and adventure.
Just as The Luxe books brought the Gilded Age to readers of Gossip Girl, Bright Young Things will bring the Jazz Age to bestselling author Anna Godbersen’s devoted fans and to new readers alike.
I’m a huge fan of The Luxe and Rumors (click the links to read my reviews), the first two books in The Luxe series. Envy was sadly disappointing for me, but I’ve got a copy of Splendor on its way to me! The way I see it, by the time I read Splendor, there’ll be just enough time to eagerly anticipate Bright Young Things
I’m a huge fan of historical fiction, but I’ve never read any set in the 1920s. It sounds great!
