This will be the last Philippa Gregory book I read. I realized that all the books in this series is the same story, but from different points of view. Too boring and repetitive. Average at best.
An interesting point of view into the War of the Roses from a generally overlooked character... However, characterization was hazy and important relationships were not fully understood nor the ending properly explained (Richard and Elizabeth of York's???). Enjoyed the fresh characterization of the much-maligned Richard III as an all-around good guy here, reminiscent of The Sunne in Splendor. Looking forward to The White Princess for further plot.
