I just finished Gortner's "Last Queen" wow! I have already recommended it to all my H.F. reader friends!
I picked up "A Lady Raised High" by Laurien Gardner in a bargain bin, it is about one of Anne Boleyn's ladies. I am kind of Tutor'd out right now, but thought I would give it a try. I am forty pages in, and pretty good so far.

I was beginning to wonder. I definitely thought I'd been doing a bit of time travelling! LOL. And if it were really July, I'm super efficient and organised as I have done most of my Christmas shopping. As it is, my mind is going round and round in a whirl of tinsel, wrapping paper and food!
