Revolution by Jennifer Donnelly

4.0

I've loved all the books I've read by Jennifer Donnelly, so I decided to give this YA novel a try. To be honest, I almost gave up after a few pages, but I'm glad I didn't. Donnelly writes about two young women, Andi, in 21st century Brooklyn, and Alexandrine, in 18th century Paris. After Andi stumbles upon Alexandrine's diary she discovers amazing parallels between their lives and becomes obsessed with Alex's story. Not a light-hearted book, but definitely worth a read!
