She's out. She's here. It's official.

My biography of Marie Antoinette is available from all the usual places that you can buy books, but if you'd like a signed copy then you can still order directly from me! ⚜️

I honestly think Melanie’s new book is astonishing. I read the first half over three or four days, im not a fast reader, then I hit the mid-point when the revolution kicks in and couldn’t put it down again. I devoured the last 150 pages that day.

More lovely reviews of my new book about Marie Antoinette!

It's now officially available from all the usual places but if you're after a signed copy or can't wait for it to be released in America, I still have a few copies left that can be bought via us.

The first reviews of my Marie Antoinette book are in and readers are calling it 'vivid and colourful', 'engaging and insightful' & 'captivating'. Which is nice.

It's officially out at the end of the month but you can pre-order signed copies directly from me.

Ooh, the accompanying book for the new V&A exhibition about Marie Antoinette and fashion just arrived. I can't wait to dig in to see what treats we are going to see in a few weeks time.

(My own accidentally well timed book about Marie Antoinette is out soon and available to pre-order now.)

Aw, that's so nice of you! And I'm looking forward to hearing your mum's thoughts!

Haha, that's EXACTLY the sort of vibe that I'm going for! Cosy, fun biographies designed for rainy Sundays or sunny days on the beach!

Aw, bless you! Thank you so much! I'm so excited for you to read it! 💖💖💖

I've had a bit of a personal rebrand ahead of my next book coming out in the summer. 🥹

Marie Antoinette: Teen Queen to Madame Guillotine is available to pre-order now from all the usual places. ⚜️
À book called Marie Antoinette: Teen Queen to Madame Guillotine written by Melanie Burrows. It has an obnoxiously pink and gold cover with a picture of Marie Antoinette looking smug and holding a rose.
