I was fascinated by what she’d do next! She was just so awful. I loved it!

I am glad to hear that it is interesting and that the protagonist is so well developed. I hope I am able to read this soon, as I think it will probably be an incredible experience for me. I love Wharton’s writing and would love to delve into more of it!

I do it myself! Great review. I love Custom of the Country. While The Age of Innocence is still my favorite and House of Mirth is number two, this is my third favorite Wharton novel. The end with Undine’s son and how he was basically a lost boy in Undine’s wake was very eye-opening and excruiting to me.

I’m looking forward to reading about wicked villainness!

Thanks for joining the Circuit!

I’m guessing Undine doesn’t see the error of her ways and learn a hard lesson by the end of the book?

I dislike her just from reading your review!

I have yet to read The Custom of the Country but it sounds phenomenal. Undine sounds like a very interesting character.
