Thank you NetGalley for the free ARC.
I think teenagers will really enjoy this book because of the formatting and short chapters. I enjoyed it, but would have liked something with more depth and background for myself.

Loved the different uses of poetic form, and you certainly don't need to be an expert to enjoy the different forms. Some might have a problem with all of the different viewpoints( both human and inanimate objects) that tell a snippet of the story, but I feel that it beautifully crafts an intimate portrait of an amazing woman.
Good for fans of history, verse, and strong women.

While I think it is novel to tell the story of Joan of Arc in a verse novel, I feel like this one tried way too hard. The vocabulary was very high and lofty, which is not the best choice for a teen book. Likewise, I felt the point of view changed far too frequently and that the only truly interesting voices were Joan and the actual quotes from the trial. I don't think is recommend this.
