there is nothing I do better than revenge ~

so long, but so epic and more than worth the time. I took off 0.5 stars because it could have been a tad shorter and there were so many characters I got confused from time to time. Nevertheless, I was hooked on the drama, and there were also some great examples of how pride and greed can really fuck you up. Can't say much anything else without spoiling, but go find out yourself!

+ this doesn't really spoil anything, but Eugenie Danglars and Louise d'Armilly were lesbians in love and you can't change my mind :) <3

I did enjoy this , some of the cliffhangers were awesome and the drama!! Interesting re the historical period too. It is a bit silly as well and really really convoluted so there’s that. But  I can see why it’s a classic and I’m glad I read it
