I hope you read The Sisters Who Would Be Queen soon, I've been wanting to read it forever and I'd love to know what you think!
ReplyDeleteI thought The Secret History of the Pink Carnation was a lot of fun - it's certainly more in the chicklit style, but it enjoys its over-the-top antics so much. I couldn't help doing the same. Hope you enjoy!

I read The Sisters Who Would be Queen in December. VERY good! I think you'll like it. Whole different view of Jane Grey than I've read before. Have fun reading these! Can't wait for the reviews on some of these.
ReplyDeleteMistress of Rome looks very good. Enjoy all your new books!
ReplyDeleteWow! You got an amazing historical fiction haul! I absolutely love the cover of the Pink Carnation book.
ReplyDeleteWow, you got some great ones last week! Dig that old copy of The Queen's Man! The Last Witchfinder looks great and I'm hoping to read Susan Higginbotham's novels at some point this year. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI'll be adding quite a few of these to my list. I can't wait for Mistress of Rome and Warrior Queens looks interesting.
