Louiseog Posted August 24, 2009 Posted August 24, 2009 I loved this, made me cry (and I don't have a daughter!) Quote
Angel Posted August 24, 2009 Author Posted August 24, 2009 The first couple of chapters really upset me! I just can't imagine having to say goodbye like that - so touching Quote
Angel Posted September 5, 2009 Author Posted September 5, 2009 Ellis Peters - Brother Cadfael's Penance Quote
Kate Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Philippa Gregory - The White Queen Was this good? Quote
Angel Posted September 6, 2009 Author Posted September 6, 2009 Classic Philippa. It's about Edward VI and his struggle to keep the crown. This is War of the Roses, with the Yorks leading the country. A very good read This book is the first of a rrilogy culminating in the House of Tudor being established Quote
Nicola Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 Philippa Gregory - The White Queen I'm really interested in reading this Angel. I've enjoyed everything that I've read by Phillipa Gregory Quote
Angel Posted September 7, 2009 Author Posted September 7, 2009 I'm really interested in reading this Angel. I've enjoyed everything that I've read by Phillipa Gregory i've read most of her books as well and this won't disappoint either. Thanks Paula. The reading and time here has taken a hit recently due to available light being spent on sewing / embroidery / quilting / knitting / kids on the computer all the time!!! Quote
Maureen Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 I'm really interested in reading this Angel. I've enjoyed everything that I've read by Phillipa Gregory Me too. this is the one I haven't read yet... Quote
poppyshake Posted September 12, 2009 Posted September 12, 2009 Mavis Cheek - Amenable Women Is that the book that has some reference to Anne of Cleeves? .. I fancy reading that so will be interested to know what you make of it. Quote
Angel Posted September 12, 2009 Author Posted September 12, 2009 It is- although I will have to go back to it next as I have a book that is on request from the library that needs to be cleared. It does look very interesting though, but I have been waiting for the other book for ages Richard Montanari - The Devil's Garden Quote
Angel Posted September 19, 2009 Author Posted September 19, 2009 The Devil's Garden was a bit different from Montanari's normal style, but neverless lots of murder and horror. Backk to Amenable Women Quote
Angel Posted September 27, 2009 Author Posted September 27, 2009 I really enjoyed amenable women. My knowledge about Anna of Cleves is basic - like most peple's. Made me look at her in a new light St Mungo's Robin - Pat McIntosh Quote
Angel Posted October 10, 2009 Author Posted October 10, 2009 Kathleen Kent - The Heretic's Daughter Quote
Angel Posted October 17, 2009 Author Posted October 17, 2009 I thought that te Heretics Daughter was great Nicci French - Beneath the Skin Quote
Janet Posted October 18, 2009 Posted October 18, 2009 I'm glad you enjoyed The Heretic's Daughter, Angel. I loved it - I thought the chapters featuring the family's captivity after the trial (in spoiler tags in case anyone who wanders in here plans to read it!) where so well written and really gave one a sense of what it must have been like to be there! Quote
Angel Posted October 18, 2009 Author Posted October 18, 2009 Until I read this, my knowledge on the American witch trials were scant!! I didn't realise how widespread it was in America Quote
Angel Posted November 1, 2009 Author Posted November 1, 2009 Not sure what I thought of the Secret Alchemy. It didn't seem to move seamlessly between the War of the Roses or modern times Also I have read Jean Plaidy - Madonna of the Seven Hills and now half way through Christi Phillips - The Devlin Diary Quote
Angel Posted November 6, 2009 Author Posted November 6, 2009 Kate Morton - The Forgotten Garden Quote
Kate Posted November 7, 2009 Posted November 7, 2009 Kate Morton - The Forgotten Garden I'll be interested to see what you think of this, I have it on my shelf. I keep looking at it, but its a bit big...! Quote
