Title: Reputation
Author: Lex Croucher
Abandoned by her parents, middle-class Georgiana Ellers has moved to a new town to live with her dreary aunt and uncle. At a particularly dull party, she meets the enigmatic Frances Campbell, a wealthy member of the in-crowd who lives a life Georgiana couldn’t have imagined in her wildest dreams.
Lonely and vulnerable, Georgiana falls in with Frances and her unfathomably rich, deeply improper friends. Georgiana is introduced to a new world: drunken debauchery, mysterious young men with strangely arresting hands, and the upper echelons of Regency society.
But the price of entry to high society might just be higher than Georgiana is willing to pay …

This had a total mean girls vibe and I was here for it!
Georgiana, left by her loveless parents with her Aunty, desperate for friends, falls in with a bad crowd, Frances, Jane, Christopher, Cecily (although she wasn’t too bad!)
However her eye is immediately captured by Thomas Hawksley…..and he has a story……
This was really quite a dark read for the time period it was meant to be in and was full of drunken parties and debauchery!
I listened to this in one day, really enjoyed it so will be getting the authors other books now!
With a mean girls vibe, I don’t think this one is for me, but I like the time period. Glad you enjoyed it, Caro!

I didn’t expect it and some of it was certainly distasteful but in the end it all worked out!!

I had so much fun with this book, especially on audio. I actually downloaded Infamous by the same author on Scribd the other day. Hopefully I’ll get to it soon!!
