Title: Great fictional intro to an intriguing Queen!
Review: I don't know much about Marie Antoinette, but I have always been intrigued by her. When I saw this book I decided it could be a good intro to her story. It was a good, easy read- I think the author, who has also written a non-fictional account of the Queen, does a great job of telling her very interesting story.This book has made me want to learn even more about Marie Antoinette, and I just purchased a biography about her yesterday. I for one really enjoyed the parts of the book where her fashions, hairstyles, and lavish homes were discussed- I'd like to find a book that delves further into that. Imagine, at one time the height of fashion was to wear a gown the color of 'goose droppings'! Of course on a more grim note, guillotine earrings also apparently came into style during her reign ;(
