J. Nelle Patrick's latest book,
TSARINA, follows Natalya, a young noblewoman who falls in love with Tsarevich Alexei at a ball in early 20th Century St. Petersburg, discovers a magical egg hidden deep in the palace and finds herself caught in the upheaval of pre-Revolution Russia. The novel expertly portrays both the sumtuous wealth and the political terror of the time...but how does 1917 Russia compare to the Russia of today? Check out J. Nelle Patrick's fun blog post to see some surprising commonalities!
