Recommendations (French Revolution really, but the periods overlap)
📚 Little by Edward Carey
📚 Madame Tussaud by Michelle Moran
📚 Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell by Susanna Clarke

I'm probably going to read Sharpe's Siege by Bernard Cornwell, even though I'll be reading them out of order.

dabbe Got 'em on the spreadsheet! 🤩 2y
Karisimo Hmm, would The Count of Monte Cristo count??? 2y
Itchyfeetreader Simon Scarrows Napoleon and Wellington quartet are excellent 2y

I‘m so excited for this new movie. There is quite a selection of historical fiction about Napoleon, his childhood, rise to fame, the wars, Waterloo, and his exiles. Have fun choosing a book.

Bluebird I didn‘t know about the movie! Thanks! Looking forward to seeing it! Will check out my TBR pile, I‘m sure I have several that will fit. However, knowing me, i‘ll choose a shiny new book that is not already on my list 😂😂 2y
dabbe I am 75% complete with WAR AND PEACE. That's gonna be my November book because I hope to have this chunkster finished by then! 🤩 2y

julieclair This is great timing for me! I will actually be visiting Corsica for a day in November, on a cruise. I know nothing about Corsica, except that Napoleon was born there. 2y
Desha This is good timing as I will be in France during part of November! I‘m thinking of trying to read Les Mis again….i only got through 1/3 of it last time I read it lol! 🤪 2y
Desha I also am looking forward to the movie! 💗 2y
ChaoticMissAdventures Ohhh I have been thinking about the movie and how I don't know enough. (Except he wasn't as short as people think??). I am really into French books in translation so hopefully I can find something there. 2y
