Booking through Thursday: What’s the best book you’ve read recently?
A: I would have to say that the best book I have recently read is "The First Princess of Wales" by Karen Harper. I loved this book even if it was a chukster. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about Joan of Kent, she is now one of my favorite leading ladies. I think the best for me was her relationship with "The black Prince" she could love him one minute and HATE him the next. It started out as a love hate relationship and turned to only love in the end. A added bonus is it has one of the most beautiful covers I have ever seen, completely my style of art.
Hi, Lizzy! I really enjoyed this book and the love-hate relationship, also.
ReplyDeleteI am reading The Traitor's Wife. It's excellent and I'm almost done.
Still jealous, I want it!

I like the cover, too. I know nothing about Joan of Kent, but would sure like to learn. Adding this to the wish list.
ReplyDeleteThis was my first read on Joan and I loved it. I mean it, I find myself thinking of it when I am doing yard work or laundry. I loved Joan and now I want to read more about that time period. You should try it out.
