The White Queen | Philippa Gregory

The Morbid podcast I listened to earlier about, "The Princes in the Tower," was all I needed as a reminder to dive back into this #historicalfiction series. This book essentially picks up right where I need. The White Queen is the mother of those two missing *cough* [murdered] princes.

After a day out to Bosworth last week, just a bit of a R3 story. Enjoyable, if a bit romanticised.

LeahBergen I‘d like to go to Bosworth!! 7mo
TrishB @LeahBergen it was fab! We were the only 4 on the tour. The guide was great and we got to do all the re-enactments 😁 7mo

Fascinating nonfiction about the lives of Duchess Jacquetta, Elizabeth Woodville, and Margaret Beauford. Each of these women, Philippa Gregory has written novels about: The Rivers Women, the White Queen, and the Red Queen, respectively.

This is the fourth and final book in the series. Wars of the Roses sure were crazy times. I've randomly known about many of the events, like the princes in the Tower, but never knew how they all tied together. There were a lot of characters with similar names like Henry or Edward and I was sometimes really confused. The book was good in places and boring in others. I'm actually really happy I persevered with it and was able to finish the series.

September 10 #IdiumInsights. BreakALeg one of the reasons this saying may have come to light was when David Garrick actually broke his leg when he was performing Richard 111 and continued to act 🎬 until the play was finished. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Heiress to the red rose of Lancaster, Margaret Beaufort fervently believes that her house is a true ruler of England. Ignored by her sainted cousin Henry VI, mocked by her mother, married at the age of 12, and endangered by childbirth she vows to put her son on the throne naming him Henry, she sends him into exile and pledges him in marriage to the daughters of her sworn enemy
