What reading level is Lucy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The casino rooms were stifling, a hell of red Turkey carpets, red plush, and green baize. She wanted more than anything to leave. She seemed to have won an incredible sum of money but there was no sound of MacGregor’s cough from behind her—the signal to leave. The masklike faces of the other gamblers at the table had not betrayed, by so much as a flicker, their surprise at her extraordinary luck. But the atmosphere was heavy with suppressed excitement. Her wig was making her head ache and the pi...llows down her dress were making her sweat in a very unladylike way.
Gradually—as is the mysterious way in casinos— the news of her phenomenal luck began to spread through the rooms and soon a silent, avaricious audience was crowding around the table, their faces like the faces at a bullfight.
Lucy found herself suddenly praying for some bad luck, any bad luck. It was uncanny; it was frightening the way the right cards winked up at her from her hand. A world where people worked hard for their daily bread seemed infinitely far away and infinitely desirable.
