Okay, I love Deeanne Gist’s books as it is, but have you seen this stunning cover? Sold me on the book immediately! How beautiful is that?
And the inside is even better.
Flossie Jayne is a “New Woman,” full of ideas, hopes, and ambitions, wanting to make her mark in the world. A mark the 1893 world isn’t ready for. Raised in a male-dominated society, Flossie thrusts her parent’s ideals aside and grasps an opportunity to work for Tiffany’s glass company.
She wants to be a famous artist, and this is a huge leap in the right direction.
Her parents are horrified she has a job and is living in a boardinghouse, but does that stop Flossie? Not at all.
Flossie discovers the world she imagined is not as rosy as she thought it was, nor are her dreams easy or without pain. And that pesky next-door boarder? She doesn’t know whether to force him to be happy–like she always is–or leave him alone altogether.
Deeanne Gist tells this flawless story in her no-nonsense way, connecting you deeply to her characters, and leaving your head swimming with the many details on the creation of Tiffany glass.
I will never be able to look at Tiffany’s masterpieces the same! I always thought they were beautiful, but knowing all the detailed work that went into those lovely pieces of art has left me astounded!
You must give this book a try, whether you are a Deeanne Gist fan or not. Her books–all of her books–have a depth to the characters and an intense storyline you do not want to miss.
Deeanne Gist delivered in Tiffany Girl, and I enjoyed every second I spent in her world.
