Ratings and reviews
Audiobook Review: This is one of the books I’ve read this year, that I loved. It brought me to tears. These well written characters based on real people. The Delicious “scandal” and tragedy. Can you imagine if this were a real memoir to her son. This was a well written book. The story made my heart flutter. The characters I actually loved and cared about. Even though I knew how the story ended. Madeline even cared about the minor characters like Kitty the Dog.. the valet that was lost. She even cared for her nurse and maid. Even though this is a work of historical fiction based on true events. It does bring about the life of which these characters lived. The Narrator: she did a well enough job. But… it’s the breathiness that got me.
