Book Review: "Rules of Civility"...Great Cover, So-So Book
Kelly Thunstrom, editor/publisher of 1776books.net, reviews "Rules of Civility", by Amor Towles.

I am always looking for the best new books to review, so I picked up Rules of Civility because of many recommendations. I was immediately drawn to the cover, which depicts a photo of a woman in '30s garb lying on a chaise lounge with a man at her beck and call. I just love books set in different time periods, especially ones from this era...a time when political correctness was unheard of and the names of Fairbanks and Garbo were on everyone's lips.
Katey Kontent and her roommate, Eve, are living in New York when they meet a sophisticated gent by the name of Tinker Grey. Katey and Eve quickly become enamored with the debonair and, by all accounts, rich fellow. A tragic event changes the course of all of their lives forever and "what could have been" never materializes.
