"The Queen's Fool" by Phillipa Gregory

Still in my catching up mode, since we have the month off of book club, I started "The Queen's Fool" by Phillipa Gregory.  Phillipa is a well known english author who's talent is taking the history of the english royal families and writing historical fiction books that are easy to read and full of information.  I have only recently discovered my love for England's history as generally I lean towards U.S history.  I read "The Other Boleyn Girl" last year and was fascinated by it! I am anxious to read and learn more about those crazy english families!

Onto to "The Queen's Fool".  I have only just started. The type is small, and it's a long book..so needless to say, it's going to take a while!  The story is from the perspective of Hannah Green who is hired to be King Edward's fool.  As we know, Edward dies young and there is some jockeying in who will be take the throne next.  I am to the part when Princess Mary has just come out of hiding to claim the throne. 

More soon!
