Abundance: A Novel of Marie Antoinette (P.S.) | Sena Jeter Naslund

She is one of women with whom I have long been intrigued. I have even been to Versailles. She led a short, ultimately tragic, yet interesting life. I have not read this novel but have read historical accounts. Fits the prompt of Day 1: #Queen

marleed @TheBookHippie I love your list. I‘d add Babe Paley and Jackie O. I‘ve long been fascinated by Babe Paley and her world and am intrigued by the attn she‘s received of late. My mother died when I was still in diapers - Babe Paley would have been the woman of her day - but handled so differently than the money-making influencers of today. I wonder what my mother‘s take on Babe was. 1w

TheBookHippie @marleed oh Babe Paley -yes!!! I recently watched a YouTube on her I‘ll try to find it back! 1w

DrSabrinaMoldenReads @TheBookHippie We definitely share Eleanor Roosevelt 1w

TheBookHippie @DrSabrinaMoldenReads I think I learn some new amazing fact every year. What an incredible woman. 1w

DrSabrinaMoldenReads @TheBookHippie I gather you‘ve read

Eleanor and Franklin

TheBookHippie @DrSabrinaMoldenReads yes! 1w

DrSabrinaMoldenReads @TheBookHippie I admire her ability to cope with him. Another person who fascinates me is Sally Hemings. Do you know who that is?

The Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family

TheBookHippie @DrSabrinaMoldenReads Oh yes. I wish we had her story written down from her. 7d

The Summer Queen: A Novel of Eleanor of Aquitaine | Elizabeth Chadwick

#Queen #CharacterCharm
The first book in my favorite series about Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine. Highly recommend if you love historical fiction, medieval England, or have any interest in strong women of history.
