I agree Michelle. It’s a bit erudite for the beach. Hmm

I haven’t read it yet, but assuming the style is similar to Wold Hall that seems like an odd description.

Thanks Wendy. I’m not sure it’s too promising if you didn’t like Wolf Hall but give it a try. With persistence you might enjoy parts.

It doesn’t sound like a beach read to me, but I’m sure it is for someone. 🙂

Wow that’s quite interesting … witnessing the coronation, must have been pretty incredible, not to mention her long reign. thanks for stopping by! I will do the same.

And a close friend of mine who’s a historian hated Wolf Hall so I have to say I am not at all convinced by the hype!

I’m intrigued by the Jubilee celebrations, especially since I totally recall watching the coronation back in the day…way back!

In school, we were allowed to watch it a classmate’s house; there were only two students who had TVs back then. The TV aspect was the most interesting part for us.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts…and here’s MY SUNDAY SALON POST
