Review: Revolution

Andi Alpers is in Paris for the Christmas holiday with her father, a famous DNA researcher, who is going to test a heart to determine whether it belongs to Louis-Charles, son of Marie Antoinette.  They are staying with long time friends G and his wife, Lily.  G, a renowned historian, shows Andi a guitar that is centuries old.  Knowing of love of music, he allows her to play it.

Alone one day, she discovers a secret compartment in the guitar case.  It contains a diary written by Alexandrine Paradis, a teenager living in the time of Louis-Charles, right in the middle of the French Revolution.  Andi is fascintated, entranced by the diary and it transforms her life.

Find out how by reading Revolution by Jennifer Donnelly.  To read my review, click here.
