Thank you to Bethany House Publishers for this ARC of While the City Sleeps by Elizabeth Camden. All opinions are my own.
This was my first Elizabeth Camden book, and I really enjoyed it! I’m definitely interested in reading more of her books in the future.
I haven’t read many books set in this time period, but I found the historical setting very well done. The setting seemed realistic, and I felt immersed in the early 1900s New York City scene.
One of the standout aspects of this story was the plot. I found it super interesting, and I liked how the author used different aspects of that time period to really add to the plot. The night workers, bomb squad, and dentist parts of the story were very educational and unique.
I also enjoyed both the mystery and romance aspects to the story. The mystery came together nicely, and the romance was sweet.
Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys historical fiction books and interesting plots.
