Quiet Time
is on the agenda this morning....the tribe of three plus one have gone Laserforcing, leaving me alone with the housework and The White Queen. I've been hanging out for this to be released, as it deals with a really interesting period of English history, but I have to admit to being a bit gobsmacked at the price .....I didn't buy it when I first found it at Borders and QBD and A&R, because I simply couldn't justify the $38 price tag!! However I was in Big W picking up some prints and found it on sale at $19.74 which is much more in my budget. It's a good read, too...not as opulent as her Tudor series, more earthy and violent....the whole "descended from Melusina" bit was really well written, and the fact that witchcraft was seen as a tool rather than a myth was fascinating reading. Totally looking forward to the next one. (definately checking Big W first!!)

I was very excited to find it at Big W as well. I've just started mine!
