The Queen of Paris: A Novel of Coco Chanel
by Pamela Binnings Ewen
I really enjoyed this book!! The Queen of Paris is a historical fiction novel based on the life of Coco Chanel. Coco Chanel most certainly had an interesting life and this author showed that in many different ways. At the mercy of men when she was young, she takes control of her life after the men in her life constantly disappoint her. She makes some horrible life decisions, one of which is signing a contract where she only receives 10% royalties on her own perfume. This book focuses on her trying to get control back of her perfume as well as her living in the Ritz with the Nazis when they invaded Paris. I finished this book with the same view of Coco Chanel as I did before I read it, I am not a fan of Coco Chanel, but I am a huge fan of Pamela Binnings Ewen! This book was well written, held my attention and gave me a lot to think about!!
