It doesn't look it, but this book is freaking hilarious. And bawdy to boot! The description on the back cover doesn't do it justice. It's long, but, for the most part, it doesn't drag, and the constant plot turns will keep you entertained. And this book certainly has a twisty plot without being too hard to follow. If you're a fan of historical fiction, this is a must-read.
