I thought the time frame was awesome, 1950s America is often looked over in favor of the wartime 40s or the free-loving 60s. This book had a very Mad Men-ish feel to it which was very cool! And since New Orleans in my neighborhood (just a few hours drive) reading about that city was even more fun:) So glad you loved this one too:)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07026974627724672435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-530836089087964376.post-40927918324426613342013-02-12T06:42:02.826-08:002013-02-12T06:42:02.826-08:00Great review!

After reading your review however, I feel a lot better about picking this book up and giving it a try.Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.com
