Hi Everyone so back in Nov we went back to the states on vacation and I saw in BORDERS a book series I wanted to read. I can not for the life of me remember the title or author of the books...Basically there are anywheres from 4-8 books in the series. It was in the fiction section and was written in the early 1900's by a male author. The books are about a young woman and dealing with society. If this sounds familiar to anyone any help will be great:)

Do you remember anything else about them? Publisher, what the covers looked like, what particular genre (classics, YA, etc)? There weren't a lot of series books for adults written back then although they were common for the YA audience. Did all the books have the same main character?

The only series of books I can think of about a young woman, written for adults, in the early 20th century, is Colette's Claudine books (which are excellent!), but certainly not written by a man.

ETA - Or maybe E.F. Benson's Lucia books?  I think there are 6 or 7 of them.  They are hilarious and are still the only books that have ever caused me to miss my subway stop.
