Alex & Eliza: A Love Story by Melissa de la Cruz


Alex and Eliza: A Love Story (Alex and Eliza Series #1)
Alex and Emma: A Love Story by Melissa de la Cruz. G.P. Putnam’s Sons, an imprint of Penguin Random House LLC, 2017. Historical fiction.  Young Adult.
If you loved Hamilton, The Musical, you will enjoy this tale of the youthful Schuyler sisters and their quests for love. The descriptions of dresses, food, houses, and other social aspects will satisfy many readers. The Will She?  Won’t She? give-and- take of the sisters and their beaus will appeal to teen girls, especially.  It is not clear exactly what is truth and what is fiction, but this may spur readers to do some research and determine the real facts for themselves.

(As of 2020, there are three titles in this series. Look for other titles in your library.)
