Creole Princess by Beth White

4.0

The Creole Princess turned out to be a surprising read, definitely not what I had expected. There were major high points in the plot, and some points that were exceptionally lengthy and drawn out and others that needed more. The politics were confusing, more so than Gone With the Wind, and multiple chapters on the war and who was where and when. This book seemed a bit rushed and struggling to put everything together that occured in history. With that said, the writing that described the events, politically, racial, and emotionally, shines through with its balanced weight of conversation, but also description and thought. A good read that satisfies readers with history, a bit of romance, and great lessons of faith, The Creole Princess will be a cherished novel for its well rounded, daring, rebellious, and charming characters, and make readers wish for their own New Orleans Spaniard.
