The Bad Queen: Rules and Instructions for Marie-Antoinette by Carolyn MeyerMy 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.
