I'll spend a little time with the bibliography in the back of the book in the hopes of finding some resources for going deeper into a few of those princesses' lives.

But, once you become accustomed to her particular writing style, it <i>feels</i> a bit more flowy. I think that was more a factor of becoming more interested in the characters, the farther I got into the book. It just took a bit to warm to and then I was fine. I still have a few windows open on my iPad to remind me which princesses I want to read more about. The fact that I found myself wanting to read more is a positive sign and one reason I gave it an above-average rating.

I need it in a storytellling fashion to absorb the information too. Otherwise I get bored. So not sure if I'd make it through this one.Jeanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270303640902731044noreply@blogger.com
