pickA charming cozy. T queen asks Georgie to spy on the infamous Ms. Simpson, while a childhood friend attempts to kill her. I think I will continue with the series.

pickThis is a very interesting non-fictional overview over Anne‘s life. Because I only watched the different semi-ficituonal series about Henry VIII‘s life, I never realized it took Anne eight years to be married ti the king. On TV it always happens in a shorter amount of time. And in the end she was only married to hin for three years. Seems like the moment he actually had her, he lost interest.
Random book from our personal library.
While I don't much care for the British monarchy these days, Diana's death occured around the time I was discovering my anglophilia as a teenager and it had a big effect on me. It's strange to think back on that time now.

pickSuper late getting my #BookSpinBingo August wrap up posted since I finally unpacked my printer. Only read 2 books because moving took most of my energy and focus but both of these were great. The tagged book will surely make you feel great about your failed relationships too 😂 This is also proof that DNFs are not always forever. I came back to this book 4 years after shelving it in “library purgatory”.
Thank you so much @Avanders what an adorable fall fun package! 😍😍 I just love the scarf, it's soo soft! The book sleeve and pillow cover are so cute! I'm going to light the candle and curl up with the tagged book this evening. 🧡🍁🍂❤️ #FFFS #FallingForFallSwap @Chrissyreadit
so-soI didn't know much about Queen Victoria so I learned something new. When I think of Queens and Kings I think of older people, so it was interesting to read about Victoria taking the crown when she was 18 years old. This book covers the first two years of her reign, including her meeting with Prince Albert, her future husband. I felt like I was reading a history book. The characters did not have enough personality for me to see this as a fun read.
