The White Princess by Philippa Gregory

I am a big fan of Philippa Gregory. I love historical fiction and I have really enjoyed all of her books.

The White Princess is an easy read. The story flows easily and it's easy to get caught up in the story. I was able to finish the book in two days. The story picks up where the previous book, The White Queen, ends. This book is based on Elizabeth of York, daughter of Elizabeth and Edward.

The story is easy to follow and it makes you feel the emotions of the characters. In case you haven't read the book, I don't want to give away too much.

If you enjoy historical fiction, this book, along with the others in the series, is a great read.

Add some sparkle to your day,

The White Queen

I have been enjoying Philippa Gregory's book since last year. I read "The White Queen" and instantly became obsessed with reading all of her books. They are historical fiction, yet they are written so well, you feel like part of the story. Her writing style is easy to follow and very descriptive. While reading her books, I could actually visualize the scenes.

So, you can only imagine how thrilled I was when they announced the series on Starz based on three of her books: The White Queen, The Red Queen and The Lady of the Rivers. The first episode was this past Saturday and it did not disappoint. I was happy that they stayed true to the book. I definitely recommend watching the series. It's on Saturdays at 8pm on Starz.

Add some sparkle to your day,
