Apart from a couple of historical inaccuracies (which you'd probably only spot if you know the period as well as I do), this has helped me clarify some ideas for my writing project.

#52bookclub24 #hasastickeronthecover - removed, actually.

Librarybelle That‘s a shame about the historical inaccuracies, especially for a book like this one. I guess a bookish pet peeve of mine are historical inaccuracies, especially in nonfiction. That‘s probably the historian coming out of me too - check your facts! 😂 11mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 11mo
jenniferw88 @Librarybelle to be fair, the author does describe her account of Aubrey's diary as: "discursive descriptions of events and conversations within specific months or years based on his writing and correspondence; shorter notes about personal events that occurred on particular days; and entries providing brief accounts of public events which begin 'On this day'", but it's still annoying. 11mo
Librarybelle At least she provides a disclaimer of sorts! 11mo
