Review of 'Finding Emilie' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
I did enjoy this. However I feel like I have read this story before in different variations. Maybe I'm getting tired of the intelligent and independent woman trope. Or maybe I just need to read less historical fiction.
First: On September 3, 1749, short before her forty-third birthday. Gabrielle-Emilie le Tonnelier de Breteuil, the Marquise du Chatelet, gave birth to a baby girl, Stanislas-Adelaide.
Last: "It is easier to bash in one's skull than to think with the mind inside it."
