#QueenBee

Loving this cozy book so far!! Sherlock Holmes and a 15 year old female detective? Yes, please! I'm really enjoying King's writing; almost every chapter is a different case that Holmes and new apprentice, Mary Russell, solve. Very #heartwarming novel and #comingofage story. Detective stories that have happy and resolved endings just fill me with such joy and comfort.

Then I passed by the thrift store and dropped $4 on a bee costume for Hannah-Bee. #dogsoflitsy

Archangel Michaela aka Priestess of Byzantium aka Queen of Constantinople is definitely a #QueenBee

Ruler of the majority of Central Europe and member of the Cadre of Ten, Michaela wields a lot of power. But it's her way of manipulating others, her ambition, and her selfishness that makes her my choice! She is happy to use her looks as a weapon (she is considered to be the most beautiful woman in the world) to get what she wants!

I just realized I forgot to post this yesterday. Anna is the evil #queenbee of this house. Weather she is trying to kill you or to save you your life is in her hands. #characters2017

#Characters2017 #QueenBee

If Morgause isn't a Queen Bee, l don't know who is.
I had a very contrasting relationship with her when l read the book, so many years ago. I can't say l liked her, she's such twisted character, but l can't say l disliked her, she's so unapologeric.
I wonder how would l feel about her should l read the book today

EchoLogical Love this book! Have you read any of the others? 7y
JazzFeathers @EchoLogical l read many of MZB books. When l was a kid, she was my favourite author. But no other Avalon books, though l know there are at least other two. Did you? How are they? 7y
EchoLogical @JazzFeathers I haven't read anything else by her, including the Avalon books. I'm afraid nothing else will live up to this one. 😥 7y

JazzFeathers @EchoLogical The Mist of Avalon is indeed an epic story. I doubt even the other Avalon stories have this grandeaur 7y
PirateJenny I preferred the later books in the series. I don't like MZB"s writing and fhe history was pretty bad. The later books were written by Diana Paxson who I find to be a more nuanced writer and a much better historian. I know it's an unpopular opinion but sometimes that's life. 7y
JazzFeathers @PirateJenny lt's interesting to hear that. I've read my last MZB book some twenty years ago and l often wonder whether l'd still like her today. Somehow, l have a feeling my impression of her books would be very different from what my younger self thought 7y
PirateJenny @JazzFeathers I was older than a lot of people when I read it so that may have colored my opinion too. I remember when it was a new book. And I have read other retellings I simply thought were better. But it's not like I'm saying people can't love it of course! She was just never my style. 7y

#Characters2017 #day14 #QueenBee Maura Isles is definitely a Queen Bee. Known by the Boston PD as the Queen Of Death, she's dark, mysterious, beautiful & aloof. Completely different than the TV Maura, she's had a tough time & can only count on Jane Rizzoli as a friend. But in her morgue, she's the Queen of all she surveys.

Lady Jane Grey may have only been a Nine-Day #QueenBee, but these authors sure know how to add fantastical fun to her story. #Characters2017

I went through a chic lit phase in my early 20's and this was one of my favorites. Miranda Priestly was the most vicious and I loved it. That's all.

Bostonmomx2 I love this movie but have yet to read the book! 7y
mrp27 @Bostonmomx2 I love the movie too, Meryl Streep is so good. But as always, the book is still better. 7y
