Progress is being made. I‘m making progress on the Clanlands Almanac, but I‘m not completely caught up yet. Poetry hasn‘t even been touched. I‘ve been totally absorbed in the world of the Black Dagger Brotherhood lately.

King John | William Shakespeare

Fun Fact: King John is the Great-Great-Grandfather of Richard II, where we started our little tour of Shakespeare‘s history plays. So I guess, in a way, we‘ve come full circle. It might be interesting to read the history plays in chronological order of the time periods they depict. We‘d still be left with some duds though.

GingerAntics Well, we certainly have some family drama going on in this one. 2y

1) Historical Fiction: Sharon Kay Penman
2) The latest is In the Midst of Winter - it didn‘t hold my interest @AmyG I would give it a pass.
3) 3 more work days and then 9 days off….

AmyG Thanks….I appreciate that. 2y
Eggs I did audio on that one, the different voices worked well. 2y

Loved this. The 2nd in the trilogy of the life of William Marshall, this was vibrant, lush, moving … magnificent. Loved every second. What an extraordinary and fabulous life. Chadwick‘s writing, character building, and portrayal of historic events, personalities, and day-to-day life is incredible. 5/5

MsMelissa Do you have A Place Beyond Courage? It‘s about William Marshall‘s parents and is excellent 3y
TrishB Loved this too ❤️ 3y
CindiB Not yet @MsMelissa. Good to have as it is considered the first I know in this series. Got the Irish Princess yesterday which is about Isabelle‘s maternal family and her Dad too. I am looking for A Place Beyond Courage and also want to get copy of The Scarlet Lion for myself, as this was a library book. I will want to reread this series! Love how different authors capture same details … bring them more to life. Love this time period. (edited) 3y
CindiB I miss these characters already! 3y

Decent historical fiction, but not for me.

So so many DNFs lately....

MsMelissa You‘re bailing on a Sharon Kay Penman book? I don‘t think we can be friends 😂 3y
TheAromaofBooks You have definitely been on a DNF roll 😂 3y

Known as the Welsh Trilogy, Penman‘s brilliant homage to Welsh history.

I'm bailing 😏🤔😫.
Unlike me but I've read 649 pages and I'm bored... it's very formulaic and there's such an undercurrent of sexual assault.
It's my birthday and I'm allowed to bail!!! 😁😁

readordierachel Happy birthday! 🎉 3y
