What reading level is The Sleeping Beauty book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Evalie Hobson, who had not dared to do more than write one scared letter, now began to call again. She and Isabella had only a superficial acquaintance, but this made it all the more precious to both of them. Talk skimmed along, chocolates were chosen from the box, tea drunk, sherry sipped. Scrawled notes passed between them, handbags were rummaged through for recipes and diet sheets. They met middle-age together – a time when women are necessary to one another – and all the petty but grievous i...nsults of greying hair, crowsfeet, and the loathed encumbrances of unwanted flesh, seemed less sordid when faced and fought (though fought spasmodically and with weak wills) gaily together. They laughed a great deal over their experiments: one week they bent and stretched with such fury that Evalie broke a blood vein in her eye; the next week they drank nothing after luncheon; another time ate only grapes all day long. They counted up calories, bought new corsets and tried new face-creams; cut paragraphs out of magazines for one another and went together to the Turkish baths.
