Prologue and Chapter 1
When I heard that we had to read a book for class I thought it was going to be a boring history book. Luckily, I was wrong. The book we're reading is "Le Temps Viendra" and I was hooked immediately with its' intriguing history and different perspectives. After reading the prologue I realized that I have seen one of the movies about Anne Boleyn (but only some parts of it). I did get slightly confused with who was narrating at first but I figured it out after I continued reading more. I feel like I can relate with this book. In my first essay for this class I wrote about a princess and how I wished that I could live in her life and in that time period. If I woke up as Anne the only thing I would worry about is how to speak and act the way they did in the 1500's but I like how Sarah made Anne Boleyn do the talking and modern Anne got to sit back and enjoy the ride. I also loved how the in-depth details of everything made it come to life. I know that I would probably change my mind if I ever had to wear them but I absolutely love dresses of the 1500's. I'm looking forward to the rest of the book.

Just like you I did not know that I have heard of Anne Boleyn before. She was a very prominent woman. I also thought that this would be a boring history book, but luckily it's not!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, you two! I'm glad you're enjoying the novel so far. Great connection to your Princess essay as well.
