"Historically acurate, but rather dry. It would be chugging along, my interest would be high, then the author would just lose steam and I found myself skimming and wishing for the end. Sad since the subject matter should be so compeling that it would be a cinch to write a story about it."
"Ok, let's just talk about how appallingly dull the last half of this book was. The story follows Margaret Tudor of England who marries James Stuart of Scotland. I learned a ton, but oh my gosh, everyone cheats on each other. England, Scotland, and France were pretty much founded on infidelity and the populations rose from illegitimate children who's dads couldn't keep their parts to themselves.
Margaret's life is a bit sad. She's so fickle, it'll drive one mad when reading all the ways she changes her mind. Back and forth, back and forth, good Lord, how droll?
I learned a lot though, and I did enjoy the story. eh."
