pickThis was fascinating, and Fraser's writing is eminently readable as well as besutiful, but I'm happy to get back to fiction for awhile. (Although, let's be honest here and say that the court of Louis XIV absolutely would have been the perfect fodder for reality television!) #loveandlouisxiv #antoniafraser
As readable as this is, I really have to admit that I'm still sort of fighting my way through it - it's not that I don't want to read it, because I do, and I want to finish it before it has to go back to the library. I just really want to read all of the novels waiting for me, too. #firstworldproblems #loveandlouisxiv #antoniafraser
Antonia Fraser makes non-fiction so totally readable. This is such fun. (Thank God; it means I actually have a chance of finishing it before I have to return it! 😂) #loveandlouisxiv #antoniafraser
Finally picking this one up again - because shock of shocks, it's due in three days and has already been renewed twice, since as y'all know, I let my library TBR pile get out. of. control. - and hoping to be able to get this one and the other one in the same situation done by the 8th! (I feel like a failure when I return library books without having read them, especially when I've had them for a w h i l e. 😂) #loveandlouisxiv #antoniafraser
I finally found this book. I've been searching for it for what seems like forever. Its Marie Antoinette The Journey by Antoina Fraser. #bookworm #booklover #antoniafraser #marieantoinette
