Do you like a sci-fi historical mash-up of action and adventure? Then Cake Eaters by Allyson Dahlin is the book for you. It keeps you hooked every step of the way. Follow Marie Antoinette in the year 3070 as she looks past the luxuries of Versailles and finds a darker secret behind the glitter and glamor.

This book shows what it feels like to get thrown into a new environment and try to understand a world you don’t know. Some of my favorite details of the story are how the author tries to put you in a worldview like Marie’s, and how it feels to be privileged and feel bad for the less fortunate.

I recommend this book for those who like romance, action, and adventure. This book hooked me, and it will surely hook you. Please commit your thoughts so I can hear what you think.
