Marie Antoinette - Serial Killer

Colette Iselin is excited to go to Paris on a class trip. She’ll get to soak up the beauty and culture, and maybe even learn something about her family’s French roots.

But a series of gruesome murders are taking place across the city, putting everyone on edge. And as she tours museums and palaces, Colette keeps seeing a strange vision: a pale woman in a ball gown and powdered wig, who looks suspiciously like Marie Antoinette.

Colette knows her popular, status-obsessed friends won’t believe her, so she seeks out the help of a charming French boy. Together, they uncover a shocking secret involving a dark, hidden history. When Colette realizes she herself may hold the key to the mystery, her own life is suddenly in danger.

Thoughts: Okay... not sure where to start. I... didn't love this book? Which I'm sorry to say, because I really wanted to LOVE it. The setting and writing were great, but the plot and characters were too lacking for me to really get into the story.

I did finish the book, but I wouldn't recommend it.
