"Not really boring, nerd literature, but sassy nerd lit. The book is broken into short sections on each queen which helped me not stay up all night reading. Really enjoyable read - not too much brain power required, but still fun. Nice break from my project book, dang you Norton Anthology!"
"A really good read. I enjoy history a great deal and enjoyed this format. Condensing down hundreds of years of history to specific events while still maintaining the overall picture made for an engaging time.
Eleanor Herman didn't just stick to the facts, rumors and politics. She engaged your heart as well in several of the examples. I look forward to more of her work."
"If you are into gossip and supermarket tabloids why not learn something while getting your fix? Brimming with historic royal scandal and intrigue, it's hard to put down. From a feminist point of view it's also nice to know that even back in the day not all women took it lying down!"
"Ok, whatever you think this book is, it's not. Trust me. Even if you're looking for steamy stories, not going to find them. This book should have been about the politics and realities of royal mistresses in Europe. What it is is a confusing mishmash of stories that always somehow come back to Madame Pompadour and how the French just are better than everyone else. There's no coherent organization and that hurts it more than anything else."
