Captive Queen: A Novel of Eleanor of Aquitaine by Alison Weir

1.0

I'd had this no my to read list for a long time, however it was really disappointing when I finally got around to it. The writing style is awful; it almost reads like it's meant to make fun of romance writing, it's that cliché. That style of writing does not work, but particularly for a character like Eleanor of Aquitaine. Even if you want to take a fictional re-imagining of her life this book feels like has nothing to do with the woman.
