BOOK REVIEW - the stars weep tonight - [/font] 'ThePaperBagPrincess'[/center][/size][/color] If you want a cheerful, fluffy beach-read of a book, then, to put it bluntly, 'The Stars Weep Tonight' is definitely not for you. This beautifully harrowing biographical depiction of Bellatrix Lestrange explores the infamous descent into insanity of one of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named's most loyal followers.
It weaves brilliantly but excruciatingly between her troubled and traumatising childhood and her later life as a cruel and vicious, though magically accomplished Death Eater, as well integrating intriguing psychological theories as to the origin of her well-documented madness.
Gorgeously and intelligently written, this book is a must-read, for amateur historians and the general public alike. [/size][/center]
