I remember loving that one as a teenager. I wonder how it would hold up now?

So far so good. We're doing a 4-way buddy read over at Goodreads.

I've just read a novel about Eleanor of Aquitaine. There is lots of interesting information about Becket in this novel, particularly the magical influence he had on King Henry. The book is excellent. It is CAPTIVE QUEEN by Allison Weir who has, also, a biography about Eleanor. Acacia Oak

I finished the Shadow of Night-sequel to A Discovery of Witches. I don't know why I do this to myself-I really need to learn to wait until the entire triology is out before reading the first book. I have no idea what to read next either...I should probably go back the Charles I but how could he possibly live up to a world of daemons, witches, and vampires! *sigh*

So I finally finished the biography in Charles and Henrietta even if I did rush through it towards the end. Now I am on to my first Daphne Du Maurier-Rebecca. I wanted to wait until closer to Halloween but just couldn't put it off any longer!
