A highly fictionalized account of Madame Tussaud’s life including an interesting take on the French Revolution. The writing style was interesting. It felt like reading a fable. The author is a playwright and YA author so that’s likely why. Interesting characters, including some villains and a lot of people that are neither good nor bad. I recommend for anyone interested in wax figures, the French Revolution or just looking for something quirky.

DNF @ 4%
.
I know, I KNOW I have a problem with DNF-ing books way too quickly. But I know that if I couldn’t find time to read this, then it probably isn’t worth it. I’ll try again sometime soon to read this but for right now? absolutely not.

I’ve never read a book quite like this one. It was wonderful and dark.
