Reviews
“Appealing. . . . The happy ending is an antidote to today’s harsh reality fiction.” —Booklist“The dialogue between Lou and Robert is as sparkling as champagne. . . . The happy ending is sigh-worthy—readers who would have preferred a more hopeful conclusion to The Great Gatsby will find it here.” —The Bulletin
“Charmingly frothy. . . . A light, escapist read.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Readers who are not ready for the classics may find a satisfying escape in Lou’s journey, and perhaps inspiration to check out the originals.” —School Library Journal
