Queenie

Courtenay Wolcott was born into money-lots of it-when in her early teens, her wealthy lifestyle was torn from her. Suddenly forced to hobnob with the lower classes she'd always disdained and mocked, now out of her social element, she struggled to keep a balance, surviving a severe beating, endless harassment, constant humiliation, ethical issues and emotional turmoil as she struggled to fit in with the poorer elements of society. A vicious family scandal allowed her to finally realize the true goodness of the "Not of Our Kind, Dear" people. This is a great story of awakening, realization and maturing. Poet, songwriter Samuel Blake, poetry author and former Bradley PhD Fellow at Tufts University. This coming of age book about a young girl of great wealth suddenly forced into the world of the have-nots kept me riveted. As an entertainment publicist and PR person I don't have much time to read, but author LC Van Savage caused me to put my clients on hold while I read every word. Great story!Tommy Lightfoot Garrett, Entertainment Publicist and Writer
