I like adventure stories, and I’m aware that history can repeat itself if things don’t change. The part of Harry Thaw’s trial was fascinating to me because we all face trials in life, so different that we need to figure out how to get out of our mess. The drama and the history shape the way we think today. If we follow the story's example, we could make a few changes to improve it, who knows? It’s a great story.

This one totally pulled me in. I didn’t know much about Stanford White going in, but the story is wild—obsession, scandal, murder—all set against the backdrop of old New York wealth. It felt like a mix of history class and tabloid drama, in the best way. The narration was solid, and the pacing kept me hooked. If you're into true crime with a historical twist, this one really delivers.

I went into this thinking it was just another true crime story, but it ended up being so much more. The mix of wealth, obsession, and social power during the Gilded Age felt wild—and honestly kind of unsettling. What hooked me was how human the messiness was. Jealousy, ego, manipulation... it had it all. I found myself googling old photos just to put faces to the names. It made history feel personal, like a scandal unfolding in real-time. Definitely, a read that left me thinking about how far people will go when image and desire collide.

Eliza Hawthorne has created a captivating audio title that takes listeners back in time to the early 1900s where the grizzly, jealousy-fueled acts of a wealthy millionaire led to scandal, shock, and horror in a time where architectural progression was more ambitious than ever. And if that doesn’t sound interesting enough for true crime listeners then they will also be met with incredibly narrated tales, competitive acts, and power-fueled resentment feuds that took place within the Gilded age of New York’s history. Listeners will also be educated within the elite of New York (and America’s) past and how many of the architectural phenomenons and skylines came to be.

I usually throw on audiobooks while multitasking, but this one had me fully locked in. I knew the basic story going in, but the way it unraveled here was something else. The pacing, the way the details were layered—it pulled me in fast. I caught myself looking up photos and news clippings after just one chapter. It didn’t feel like a history lesson; it felt... weirdly current. If you’re into messy true stories, this hits.
