OK OK OK - I know I have a trillion books already on the go, but I just had to take a sneaky peak at this one too! Now I might have to put everything aside to read it! Bummer!
me started a new book which only came out today was shopping in sainsburys and saw it so got 2 books for £7 and used up all my nectar points lol
read already this year 2 books on my tbr pile lol

Finished The Red Queen, and I can't say I agree that it was better than the White Queen, but it was very good. The thing that got on my nerves, was the relentlessness of the ambition and self-righteousness. I couldn't warm to Margaret Beaufort at all, and I think that spoilt the enjoyment of it. Fabulous writing again from Philipa Gregory
well to me the red queen was a darker book which maybe why I liked it and look forward to the 3rd in the series the lady of the rivers
SteveI think I read somewhere that there will be a few more in this series and it's not a trilogy at all. Problem is, I can't recall where I read it, have you heard anything like that?
my copy of the red queen set the scene for the next book in the series the lady of the rivers about elizabeth woodville's mother

Looks good. I felt she was one of the most interesting characters. I too am looking forward to it.

Also checked out the TV Book show list and a few titles grabbed there too;Even The Dogs
Tiger Hills
The News Where You Are

The Room appears on both lists and has been discussed at length on goodreads, but I can't say that I'm eager to read that one at all!
