The story is told primarily through Nell's personal diary, but between chapters the book adds snippets of gossip, recipes, and correspondence between other characters to get in world events and to add authenticity to a lot of the beliefs people held. I had expected more of her life with Charles, but really that was only the last third of the book. It focused a lot on her early life and her life as an actress. I think this is a great book both for historical fiction lovers and for those new to the genre. It's very readable, and it's rekindled my need to go read all the historical fictions!
