Admittedly, Bright Young Things starts off a bit slow and in the Prologue there is what I'd consider to be a massive spoiler (which kept me guessing throughout the book and will continue to keep me guessing most likely). However, once you are introduced to the three main characters, things really start to take off. If you're looking for something that could be considered The Great Gatsby meets Gossip Girl, this could well be it. 
 With that said, I felt horrible for Astrid, believe that Lettie (having grown up in Ohio) knows very little of the world, and that Cordelia is only just beginning to understand the Grey family. And well, I'm very much looking forward to seeing where the next book will take the story! Also, I must admit that I liked that the story followed all three girls, even when they weren't together as it allows the story to be more diverse (in my opinion).
