Madame Tussaud

Michelle Moran's historical fiction Madame Tussaud provides an interesting and informative look at the French Revolution time period. The story has a good pace. Moran's writing style is engaging. I enjoyed Marie's story. This is a talented, headstrong woman living in a difficult time. Marie straddles two worlds, the nobility and the National Assembly. I like that the focus wasn't from the royals POV.
Moran does a very good job of telling the frightening and gruesome history. The history seems very accurate, which I LOVE! So many historical fictions take to many liberties that are just distracting. I love Moran gives small summaries after the end of the story for many of the character's lives and a historical note of what was changed, left out, or added and why?
