here are only two or three human stories, and they go on repeating themselves as fiercely as if they had never happened before
Alright, so to add to my list of books that I love, is a historical romance novel that is mostly history with a bit of romance thrown in just to keep things interesting, and I'm convinced, depress you.
Mistress of the Revolution by Catherine Delors was one of the best novels that I have read in a WHILE. It makes you think, and for us history buffs, gives you a look into the side of the French Revolution that isn't discussed in textbooks. The love story is poignant and only serves to make the actually history all that more moving. I would suggest this book to anyone who isn't afraid of a little bloodshed, will take the time to read a novel that may feel like a slow read (personally I think that it's because the story is just difficult to take in), and appreciate the history that brought the world to where it is today.
I've come a little farther in Eat, Pray, Love and am loving every word of it. I can't wait to get to the end. I believe that I will feel enlightened when I'm done, and am looking forward to that moment.
