What reading level is Crossed Quills book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
grumbled George Debenham, seated between his wife and Mrs Lisle, “we shall have to take two carriages.”
“I hardly think it likely, dear,” Albinia said placidly, tucking a white kid-gloved hand beneath his arm. “No one would choose to return to those ridiculous hooped skirts of the last century. It is bad enough having to wear them at Court.”
“I am glad I never had to manage a hoop,” said Pippa, sitting opposite her. She smoothed her ball-gown with nervous fingers.
The claret-red crape, trimme...d with full-blown white satin roses and worn over a white satin slip of Bina’s, was quite the most beautiful dress she had ever owned. It was wasted on her. Even Bina’s superior dresser had given up trying to put a fashionable curl in Pippa’s hair, and pinned it up into a topknot as severe as her usual style. Her cheeks were so pale with trepidation, the least touch of rouge made her look like an actress, so that too had to be abandoned.
“I found the train of an evening dress difficult enough, remember, Bina?”
