The Tudors: The Complete Story of England's Most Notorious Dynasty | G.J. Meyer

• This hilarious section about the privileged access to the king's toilets: I can't even. Tudor history is so interesting; shamefully and grotesquely interesting •

This brought to mind Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp, and the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral.

The Road to Jonestown: Jim Jones and Peoples Temple | Jeff Guinn

Snagged this one today as a deal on #Kindle. I'm only 25 pages in and I'm hooked. This is gonna be one crazy ride. #batshitcrazy #truthisstrangerthanfiction

Bookladylinda I need to check out the kindle deal!!! 🏃🏾‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️🏃🏾‍♀️ 6y

8little_paws Sweet. I own this in hardcover, read it and loved it, but now I can replace with a cheap kindle copy and donate my paper version. I'm trying to reduce the # of physical books I own, but enjoy kindle versions a lot and don't want to get rid of books that I haven't read, or that i really liked and that i know I'll want to keep a copy of. 6y

cathysaid @Bookladylinda Run Forrest...run! 6y

cathysaid @8little_paws That sounds like a great idea! 6y

The Stranger in the Woods: The Extraordinary Story of the Last True Hermit | Michael Finkel

pick

Christopher Knight lived alone and undetected in the Maine Woods for 27 years. This is his story. It is a strange one. Unfortunately his survival depended on stealing supplies. He did enjoy reading, and books and magazines were included in those supplies. The author relates the facts with kindness and respect. The photo is of his campsite. #truthisstrangerthanfiction

Leftcoastzen Been very curious about this one. 6y

DivineDiana @Leftcoastzen It‘s a quick read! 😀 6y

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil | John Berendt

This book sprang to mind as soon as I saw today's prompt of #gardentitle @RealLifeReading #truthisstrangerthanfiction @RealLifeReading

Literaryunicorn I love this book! When I went to Savannah I stayed in a bed and breakfast about a block from the actual Mercer House and toured it. So awesome! 8y

Lcsmcat @Literaryunicorn , How fun! Did you do the graveyard tour? 8y

Literaryunicorn @Lcsmcat That's one thing I didn't do... but that's a good excuse for a return trip!! 8y
