• Review: Matrix, Lauren Groff

  What an absolutely beautiful novel! This story focuses on the life of Marie, a nun in the 12th century. Originally French, and of partial royal blood, Marie is banished to a convent in England as a young woman. Lauren Groff tells a fast-paced story that spans the entire life of Marie.
