As always, I'm enjoying this Philippa Gregory novel. I do, however, confess to the following blasphemy: I googled how long Henry VIII and Catherine Parr were married. I know that she was the one living with it, but I was desperate to know how much longer I was going to have to put up with my beloved Henry and all of his various offensive odors. Can't say I've ever looked forward to his death in a book before. #thekingstinks #pleasestopmentioningit
KellyTurner I felt the same when I read Lamentation by CJ Sansom- his death came at a fortuitous time in that book!! 8y
LitHousewife @KellyTurner I've never read his books. They are on my list. When I do, I'll be prepared. 🙂 8y
