We Speak No Treason: The Flowering of the Rose | Rosemary Hawley Jarman

One of my favorite novels about Richard III is on sale for #Kindle today. (I don‘t know why it‘s split into two separate ebooks, but at least they‘re both on sale). #kindledeal #ebook

Cathythoughts Sounds good !! Stacking 4y

LeahBergen I‘ve had this on my shelves forEVER. Maybe this will be the year? 😆 4y

TrishB @batsy there are a few others I‘ve seen and I‘m always tempted! 7y

TrishB @Andrew65 I always look fondly at it because it‘s such a great read! 7y

TrishB @Cathythoughts when that came out I felt really old as it was a 30th anniversary edition and I remembered buying it in original release! 7y

Melissa_J One of the best books ever!! I‘m totally team Richard III, history has wronged him! 7y

DGRachel You are making me want to reread this!! 7y

Cinfhen Hubby‘s newest favorite author!!!! 7y

Cinfhen Hubby has a different cover...I think it‘s red 7y

LeslieO I haven‘t read this yet but it‘s on my shelf! 7y

TrishB @Melissa_J exactly! 7y

TrishB @DGRachel because it‘s so good! 7y

TrishB @Cinfhen he has good taste! I‘ve seen the red cover too! 7y

TrishB @LeslieO you‘ve got a great waiting for you 👍🏻 7y

LeslieO Looking forward to it. I loved The Princes in the Tower by Allison Weir. 7y

TrishB @LeslieO Weir has a very different approach/opinion on RIII, should be interesting for you to read. 7y

LeahBergen I have the really ugly US 1st edition cover. 😆😆 7y

TrishB @LeahBergen post yours when you get the chance! 7y

LeahBergen @TrishB Will do. Prepare yourself. 😆😆 7y

TrishB @LeahBergen can‘t wait 😁 7y

DGRachel @TrishB @LeahBergen OMG! I just found a new copy of the 30th anniversary edition on AbeBooks for just under $50. Guess who‘s going to have a hardcover edition in 7-21 days? 😍😍 7y

LeahBergen @DGRachel Awesome!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 And I soooo want to reread the Welsh trilogy now. Hmm... 2019 buddy read? 😆 7y

DGRachel @LeahBergen YES, PLEASE!!!! I am purposely not doing any challenges this year, beyond the normal Goodreads total and *maybe* MountTBR. I want to be free to read what I want when I want and not feel the pressure of fitting prompts and running out of time. 7y

saresmoore I have never read these books, but all the posts are making me want to! 7y

TrishB @DGRachel fab 😁😁 @LeahBergen I may join in depending when you do it! But don‘t arrange around me just in case. 7y

TrishB @saresmoore there are no better historical fiction books 😁 7y

rubyslippersreads @LeslieO Me too. This is definitely going to be my year to read it. 7y

rubyslippersreads @DGRachel What a wonderful find! 7y

rubyslippersreads @Melissa_J As a lifelong #Ricardian, I need to read this. 7y

Richard III: The Maligned King | Annette Carson

Today is Richard III's birthday. I'd love to visit Yorkshire, England, because of the #Ricardian history, The Secret Garden, and because some of my ancestors came from there. #NFaboutacountryyoudliketovisit #uncannyoctober #catsoflitsy

RealBooks4ever Happy Birthday, Richard III! He's always fascinated me. 😯 8y

PirateJenny My scoliosis spirit animal! I have to call him that now because that's why my managing ed gave me the new Pelican Shakespeare edition to work on. 8y

Richard III | William Shakespeare

pick

A real villain. A woman who prophesies with the curses she lays on her enemies. Betrayal galore. You can't turn a page without tripping over the bodies of the latest victims, some innocent while others not.

rubyslippersreads As a staunch #Ricardian, I have to stick up for Richard III and recommend

The Daughter of Time

Nebklvr @rubyslippersreads You should check out Steve Donaghue on booktube. shaketube 2017: Richard iii. He mentions this same book 8y

Nebklvr @rubyslippersreads Have to check it out 8y

rubyslippersreads @Nebklvr Thanks! That sounds great! 😊 8y

Nebklvr @rubyslippersreads I doubt you will agree with the rest of his conversation but he does plug the book 8y

rubyslippersreads @Nebklvr I'm glad you warned me. 😄 8y

Nebklvr @rubyslippersreads I enjoy watching even though there is always something i disagree with!! 8y

rubyslippersreads @Nebklvr I definitely disagreed with him (and I thought he giggled a lot 😄), but it was interesting. Thanks for telling me about it—I'll have to watch more Booktube videos. 8y

#norain #90sinJuly
@Cinfhen @Robothugs
Just some Sun 😀👍

rubyslippersreads I need to read this. (Though probably not right after the #chunkster that is #GWTW 😄). 8y

DGRachel I LOVE this cover. 😍 I do not need another copy of this book. I have the paperback and Kindle version, but this is so beautiful. I should own all of SKP's work in hardback, right? I owe it to her, as a fan of her work, to support her. Right? Yes. That's why I must find and buy this... 8y

Robothugs 💗 Good choice! :) 8y

TrishB @rubyslippersreads it's awesome 😀 8y

TrishB @DGRachel I have this one in all formats so I truly think you should 😂 I have one more to get in hardback, slowly brought them all again where I only had paperback! 8y

rubyslippersreads @DGRachel @TrishB And as the anniversary edition, isn't this one slightly revised? So you owe it to yourself to complete your collection. 😄 #enabler #Ricardian 8y

LeahBergen @rubyslippersreads It's revised?? Oh oh. I may need to check it out. I have a US first edition of this and the cover is HIDEOUS. 😂 8y

DGRachel @LeahBergen I just saw that cover when I went looking for this edition and you're right - it's AWFUL! What were the publishers thinking? 😂😂 8y

DGRachel @TrishB @rubyslippersreads I knew I could count on your support. 😂. I need this one and the Welsh Princes trilogy in hardcover. I have all the others. (edited) 8y

LeahBergen @DGRachel It's brutally bad, isn't it? I have to keep it though as I have them all in first editions. 😂 My first edition cover for Here Be Dragons is laughably awful, too. It actually has a dragon. Flying through the sky. 😳 8y

DGRachel @LeahBergen #priceless 8y

TrishB @DGRachel @LeahBergen @rubyslippersreads yes SKP found some errors and corrected them for this edition. She found them due to new research. That flying dragons cover 😱😱 8y

Cinfhen Yay 😊 #NoRain 8y

Melissa_J I ❤️that book 👍🏻 I may have to invest in a new edition as mine's a little beat up. 8y

TrishB @Melissa_J it is a lovely version 😀💗 8y
