The Gilded Years by Karin Tanabe
5.0

My full review can be found at: www.loganashleyleduc.com

I am such a fan of historical fiction so naturally I was eager to dive into this title selected by Once Upon a Book Club for their August 2016 box.  

I wasn't sure what to expect, and honestly the beginning was a bit slow.  The storyline prior to Anita admitting to her secret was honestly quite tough to read, but once it was made apparent that she would have to work incredibly hard to hide it, it really picked up.

This was a powerful story that really resonated with me and I'm so pleased that I finally had the opportunity to read and enjoy it.
