Really good book. The plot was well-written and engrossing. I look forward to reading more from this author.

I wanted to enjoy this book going into it. I love historical fiction and burlesque has always been something I was curious about. But this book was not what I was looking for at all. It really felt like a handful of different stories that had been mushed together. The book plot I feel could have been fine on its own without the plot about finding the dude who had all their money. The characters felt too much like caricatures rather than real people. And all of the celebrity/historical figure name-dropping felt forced rather than natural to the story itself.

The writing and dialogue also really threw me off from the first few pages. Perhaps it was the vernacular chosen but I just couldn't mesh with it.
