ok, so i found this review late. i had this on my wish list but now i am thinking to take it off. even if the history is good, i really hate dragging myself thru a book when there are so many others that will teach me or make me curious enough to research. thank you for your honesty.

Swapna and Beth,
I definitely think it is worth giving a try for the right reader, particularly if you go in knowing it will be sort of slow. Part of my problem is that I was not expecting the plodding pace.

I still thinking of giving this one a try. I didn't request a review copy, so I'm not sure when I'll get to it. Beth F’s last blog post..Wordless Wednesday (May 13)

I think I might give this one a try and just take it really slow. I am also really deficient in Mexican history and want to know more - thanks for the review! S. Krishna’s last blog post..Tender Graces – Kathryn Magendie

Wow, I had a different reaction to this book entirely. Thanks for your take on this historical fiction. I really enjoyed it. I’ve added your link to my review here: http://www.savvyverseandwit.com/2009/05/last-prince-of-mexican-empire-by-cm.html

Like you, I was impressed with the scope and history this book had to offer...but overwhelmed with the amount of detail and the vast cast of characters. Sounds like you and I felt EXACTLY the same about this novel! Wendy’s last blog post..Mailbox Monday - May 11, 2009

I'll skip it too I think. I read one other review of this book recently (and of course I can't remember where) but I think the feeling was mutual! Sandy’s last blog post..The Kind of Friends We Used To Be - Frances O' Roark Dowell (audio)
