I read this book because I'm fascinated and intrigued by all things Marie Antoinette! There are three books in this trilogy: this one, "Days of Splendor, Days of Sorrow" and "Confessions of Marie Antoinette." All three of the books have the same pluses and minuses. Incredibly well-researched, there are quite a few times in the books when I learned things that I've never read or heard of before - surprising after as many books as I've read...and even multiple visits to Chateau Versailles! The author's knowledge of the subject has the distinct advantage of 'putting you right there' and her descriptions of people and surroundings are detailed and sharp, allowing the reader to truly 'see' what is being described. The books are written in the first person, by Marie Antoinette...except for occasional instances when - out of nowhere - they point of view is switched to another person. I found the times this happened to be confusing and poorly inserted into the narratives. I realize, of course, that in telling the story there needed to be information given to the reader which Marie Antoinette was not privy to. However, I felt it was extremely clumsily handled and spoiled what might have been surprisingly good historical fiction (not a genre of which I'm particularly overly fond). I recommend the entire trilogy to anybody who is interested in learning the "true" story of what happened to the famous, ill-fated Queen of France. The research and details of her life make up for what is lacking in cohesive writing style. They are quick easy reads, and I found myself finished with the trilogy much sooner than I expected to be.
