All research reading at the moment and re-reading the Histoire de Guillaume le Mareschal ready for talking at Cartmel Priory in a fortnight. I also have to re-read Mort by Terry Pratchett for a blog - so it's all work related.

I'm still working on Jean Plaidy's Madonna of the Seven Hills (Lucrezia Borgia) and Robert Hutchinson's Young Henry (NF about Henry VIII).

The Second Duchess by Elizabeth Loupas -- damn, but it's good! And thanks to everyone who gave me the references to the Browning poem -- I'll be reading that when I get finished with the book.

Went straight to Pargeter's The Scarlet Seed after finishing The Green Branch. About halfway now and enjoying it very much.

Oh dear! I'd like to know why, too.

I'm still reading House of Stairs by Barbara Vine.

I started As Meat Loves Salt for the BOTM discussion. Not sure what I think of it so far.
