Review: Spring Collection

Spring Collection by Judith Krantz
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this book. The characters are diverse in personality, motivations, ethics, and it all melds into the glittering world of spring in Paris, Fashion Week before it was a proper noun. A slice of the 1990's, historical fiction for the younger adults of today ;)

A little graphic for my tastes at times, mature themes, but a riveting read with humor and wit, and the workings of several character's minds as the story switches POV.

Review: The Bad Queen: Rules and Instructions for Marie-Antoinette

The Bad Queen: Rules and Instructions for Marie-Antoinette by Carolyn Meyer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a great book--the first book I've read by Carolyn Meyer, but definitely not the last! I love her historical detail, and how she brought the characters to life. A thoroughly engaging read, humor, sadness, frustration, you felt all of it with Antonia. Nothing graphic, although sexuality is discussed, a read I would be very comfortable recommending to a mature teen.

You know the ending, but getting there with this fascinating account is a very worthy read.

In the Boss's Castle by Jessica Gilmore
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I earned this as an ebook as a part of the Harelquin Rewards program. Fun story, I enjoyed the adventures, the settings, and the happy endings. A quick read, too. I love a sweet and quick romance with a happy ending anytime!
