And with Alex's star on the rise, Eliza can't help but feel neglected by a husband who seems to have time for everyone but her. Eliza struggles to build a home in the hustle and bustle of New York City just as Alex's burgeoning law practice brings him up against his greatest rival-the ambitious young lawyer Aaron Burr. Yet even after the Revolution comes to its historic close, Alex and Eliza's happily-ever-after is threatened. But when the war unexpectedly arrives on Eliza's doorstep, she must fight for a better future-for their fledgling country and for her marriage. even if that means leaving his beloved Eliza behind to join the front lines at the Battle of Yorktown. Still, Alex is as determined as ever to prove his mettle and secure his legacy. As the war for American independence rages on, Alexander Hamilton and Elizabeth Schuyler begin their new life as a married couple. Yet, I think fans of the musical and the first novel will greatly appreciate what de la Cruz has put on the page and will happily return for the third book that was announced in the author’s note but people who are not already a fan may want to look elsewhere for their entertainment.A New York Times Bestseller The thrilling romance of young Alexander Hamilton and Eliza Schuyler continues in the sizzling sequel to the New York Times bestselling Alex & Eliza: A Love Story 1781. Also, the story moves slow without a lot of action which, again, isn’t exactly the perfect way to catch teen’s attention. The book is being touted as YA but the characters are married and discussing starting a family which is not really teen friendly topics.
However, I’m not sure who this book is for other than fans of the musical. This particular bit of history really sells right now. Basically, what I am trying to say is that this book felt very much like historical fan fiction which is totally fine. That work was already done by Lin Manuel Miranda.
All of this is to say that de la Cruz didn’t really have to create a world or developed characters for me to enjoy this book.
