I know I've mentioned this book a few times lately, but I just need to tell you about it. I loved it. every little thing about it [except one, but I can't tell you because it's at the very end].
this is why I loved it:
one. it was set in New York. my fave.
two. not only was it in New York, but much of the book was set at Tiffany...need I say more?
three. New York + Tiffany + 1945. I love how the two girls in the book lived in such a time of glitz & glamour. I pictured it like this:
four. the couple celebrated VJ Day in Times Square. I especially loved this part.
five. I learned things. I didn't know that on a foggy night in 1945, an army plane hit the Empire State Building. is this something most people know that I somehow missed?
loved it. read it. let me know what you think.
#102. an imagination.
#103. old movies, books, fashion, etc.
#104. city lights.
#105. inheriting my grandmother & mom's love for reading.
Totally think I need to read this one, now that you said all of these FABULOUS things about NYC! I miss it mucho. I'll let you know when I get to reading :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a good book! And I didn't know that a plane crashed into the Empire Building then...Learn something new everyday! :)
ReplyDeleteOkay so the pictures you put up alone make me want to read the book! And I definitely did NOT know that the Empire State Building was hit by a plane! Good thing it didn't happen when Josiah proposed up there! :-O
ReplyDeleteAdding this to my list....that's growing, never shrinking. Sigh.
