Thank you Forever and NetGalley for the gifted copy and eARC of The Disappearance of Astrid Bricard!  All opinions in this review are my own.

Natasha Lester is easily one of my favorite historical fiction writers and Astrid Bricard just became my favorite book by her!  It's got the whirlwind energy of Daisy Jones and The Six mixed with high fashion.  I like that the story follows three generations of the Bricard women and how they all operate within the world of fashion revealing their secrets one by one.  While it does take some time to get to Astrid's disappearance, Lester's expertise in storytelling makes you almost forget that the disappearance is supposed to be the main focus.

Fans of Lester will be treated to appearances of Alix St. Pierre.  It is not necessary to read The Three Lives of Alix St. Pierre before reading The Disappearance of Astrid Bricard, but it is fun to see how the characters operate in the same world.

The Disappearance of Astrid Bricard is such a fantastic read and I'm already looking forward to Lester's next novel!
