I had seen this book floating around for a bit and decided to listen to the audio book. After reading "I Was Anastasia" by the same author last year for a book club, I was a bit hesitant to give this one a try at first. That was partially due to the fact that I didn't like her other book and had dnf'd it. But I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed it. Some of the characters were a bit annoying and I wanted to beat them upside the head. I did like that it was based on a real person and set in a time period that I don't read much of. Or see written about in a fiction context.
