Sorry to hear that this one seemed a little padded. It's always annoying when an author seems more interested in word count than the story! But shout-out to Mr T for giving you books! My husband has given up, as I have a bad habit of buying them for myself. lolAlexia561https://www.blogger.com/profile/10797515620050469395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-91048568360223162012018-12-09T16:25:09.588+00:002018-12-09T16:25:09.588+00:00I do enjoy Philippa Gregory's tudor novels but...I do enjoy Philippa Gregory's tudor novels but that is too bad she was so focused on their appearances in this one.

However, I might not go beyond those in the Cousins' War for now.

I'm well behind on my Phillipa Gregory reading when I will occasionally grab one on a whim at the library. I do enjoy reading her Tudors.
