But moving into one sphere means leaving another behind, and as Eve tries to negotiate the differences between her family values and this glittering world, she learns the risks of unbridled ambition and the importance of making her own choices about who she wants to be. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLyrically evoking a bygone era with contemporary resonance, \u003ci\u003eThe Last Book Party\u003c\/i\u003e charts Eve's soundings as she learns to navigate the deep waters of sex, love, and life over the course of one fateful summer.
