Details ✨✨ Whoa. Very lively this chapter is.

Shock of knowledge is FUNNY 😆

That woke me up mentally. Oooh… really crazy stuff… Ruta loves writing about secrets and how characters react to them. I think that her books are historical fiction mystery..

This percent is a masterpiece. A masterclass… all I feel is how Marjorie feels. I don’t fully feel but I grasp it.

Chapter 56; wow. That writing is very reflective and a refreshing read. Marjorie-…..

This was an emotionally powerful moments. Also, I really find the way that the story really unfolds more layers. It’s a book that’s very on the mystery and historical vibe. It’s very Ruta to accentuate the story in a way that really takes this history and make it right by showing the world that was.

The questions; the way it feels so real to me. Especially how my life experiences intersected in this section 70-72 percent so far. The emphasis on an issue that is on the mend but it’s almost a century of improvement. Marjorie is a fine fine character. Hats off… Also….

I was genuinely shocked by some revelations, and the story completely hooked me. The uncomfortable truths are ramping up, and the tension keeps tightening. Ruta has a powerful way of increasing pressure while keeping everything emotionally grounded. Marjorie’s perspective adds depth, and the stakes feel increasingly personal. This made me go OMG. The story fits the adult genre very well.

Huh Detroit and 1920s is most certainly a different uncertain time. Man, it boggles my brain.

I’m laughing out loud. That was unexpected.

Ooooh ok. Neat. Fascinating. Touching. Most interesting.

Chapter headings are epic due to the nature of where it is quoted. I really love this chapter’s heading.

The party scenes are rich with culture, elegance, and a sharper adult tone. The mix of glamour, danger, and larger-than-life guests is fascinating, and the 1927 atmosphere shines through the music and fashion. The writing is vivid and expressive, full of societal drama, personal stakes, and Marjorie’s keen, authentic observations that cut through the surrounding phoniness. This book reminds of Catcher in The Rye.

There’s an intriguing undertone of secrets, and the characters’ quirks feel vivid without being overwhelming. The era’s blend of ambition, profit, and emerging modernity is sharp. The contrast between life outside the residency and the women artists’ world creates rich social dynamics. Everything feels both safe and dangerous—full of subtle double takes.
