The Philosopher's Kiss by Peter Prange
3.0
3.5. Just a few things:
- I liked the idea of the plot. Interesting and unique. You know, not another cliche Anne Boleyn tale or something along those lines (not that I have anything against stories about Henry VIII and his escapades. It's just a very popular topic.)
- Loved the descriptions of Paris in the 18th century!
- Characters were a bit aggravating at times and I don't think I actually had a favorite character, as almost all of them pissed me off at some point in the novel.
- I hate judging books by their covers but I probably wouldn't have picked this up if it hadn't been on sale at the time of my purchase. I'm glad I did though!
