Reading progress update: I've read 240 out of 1200 pages.

Robespierre - Javier García Sánchez

The book starts slowly (although the whole setting the ambiance around the guillotine is amazing) but now it has definetely picked up and it's hard to put it down. The author's detailed research is showing as he comments on the figures around the Terror and Thermidor.

 

Pretty amazing book so far.
