I can't wait to find out Alexandrine's story. The French Revolution was an intense period in Paris's history (to say the least), and I want to know how she dealt with it. Also, I want to see how Andi reacts to what Alexandrine went through.

I think that anyone who can tie two stories into one has got to be a talented writer. Its unique and I love unique books!

I really liked her first YA book, A Northern Light, so I'm very interested to see what she does in Revolution. Plus it has the Paris and the French Revolution. What's not to love?

I read the first chapter of A Northern Light while sitting in the cafe of Barnes & Noble about 1.5 years ago. It was well written and fascinating.Honestly, I don't know why I didn't buy it at the time...or finish reading it. I think that's one of the more compelling reasons I want to read this book! I already know she's a great writer AND the premise is intriguing.

HAPPY READING
