4.0

This was a quick read with a lighthearted plot and bittersweet ending. It’s a small slice of ice story of society and societal expectations of American and English life in the 1870s. Frivolity, gaiety, and over-familiarity were quiet restricted, as you'll see play out in the plot.

An added bonus of this text is that you can knock this book out in a couple of hours and boost your read count for the year!
