The Lady and the Unicorn

My only real complaint with this book is the use of gratuitous French. They???re already speaking French in the story, why do they say ???Tiens??? or ???Bien sur???? If you don???t speak French you can sort of figure out what they???re saying from context sometimes, but about half the time you have no idea what???s being said - because there speaking French in a story where they???re technically already speaking French.
It was an enjoyable read. Not life-altering, but an interesting story that???s more about characters and how tapestries are made, with no super dramatic plot.

[slight spoilers] This was more of a 3.5 or less for me because of the way it ended, but I didn't want do penalize it because it's just not the book for me.

I admire the way this was written, and I thought the different narrators were interesting (though you do have to pay attention to whose name heads the chapter). It was a quick read, too, and definitely immersive in the time period.

But . . . I was attracted to this story because of the tapestries, and it ended up reminding me why I often avoid historical fiction.
