Starting this book again as I only got a few chapters in before having to return it last time I borrowed it.
Excited to learn more about the history of Queen Mary, Queen of Scots.

An indepth history of two truly incredible queens; well written, well researched and well narrated. It had quotes and references to source materials giving it extra dimension. However...
There seemed to be times where she would go over the same point 3 or 4 times. Sometimes to add a quote from historical sources, which made sense, but there were times when it felt unnecessary.
All the same I enjoyed this book and I'm glad to have read it.
So far it is an interesting story, but it's very repetitive. It often goes over the same point 3 or 4 times before moving on. As much as I like the attention to detail I'm getting tired of hearing the same thing in 3 different ways.

On the go as usual so another audiobook has begun. I'm fascinated by English history and the lives of Kings & Queens.
I have watched many movies of this genre & as I never studied history I can easily get confused by which order Queens or Kings came into rule & each one's story.
Very easy to listen to so far & I love that the author explains how she spent time researching royalty, Queens especially. I'm excited to learn more about them!
Back from the talk - engaging but didn't really learn anything new.
But I did learn that:
✔ The murder of RIZZIO is a red herring to disguise the fact that they wanted to abduct Mary
✔ Kate is of the 'Mary wasn't involved in the murder of Lord Darnley' camp
