"Sixteen-year-old Sabine Durand, daughter of aristocrats, thinks of nothing but donning exquisite ball gowns and being seen at all the right parties in Paris. When she secretly rekindles a forbidden friendship with Michel, he spirits her away to her first salon and she meets the revolutionary Ben Franklin. Fueled by ideas of change, Sabine is determined to take control of her life as it spins toward an arranged marriage to a salacious aristocrat. But how can she break free of her social-climbing mother's cruel grasp? Perhaps the secret lies in her portrait, recently painted by Fragonard, and her new understanding of love." -Goodreads.com
I so so wish The Revolution of Sabine was longer! I feel like so much more detail could have been added (and I want to read what happened after the end of the book... but then I do always hate endings..). It also was a really quick read, only took me about 1 and 1/2 hours to read it...
Only because it felt to rushed and like to much was cut out (or not enough added) am I rating it lower...
3 stars.
