Normal Women | Philippa Gregory
post image

It's been a rough week. This brand new book arrived yesterday, which brightened my outlook.
From Goodreads:
Most histories have been written by men, about men, relegating women—with the exception of a few queens—to the shadows of time. Now, bestselling author Philippa Gregory reveals the importance of ordinary women, providing a more balanced and truer chronicle that expands and adds rich detail to the story of Great Britain.

🌸 Hours in the day, honestly.
🌸 🌸Anxiety about things out of my control
🌸🌸🌸 That my daughter is happy, well adjusted and doesn't seem to feel the deficit of only having one parent.

I'm behind for my #classicschallenge2024 as Little Women was March's book, but better late than never. This edition was passed onto me from my cousin though I don't remember when.

kspenmoll It looks like an old edition! When was it published? 3w
Born.A.Reader @kspenmoll 1962. My cousin, who's several years older than me had it for a while before the passed it down to me. 3w

Ooh what a fun prompt! This one has a publisher's date of 1885, with a handwritten inscription Christmas of that year. I've several other books that look old but don't have a copyright or publisher's date to tell me just how old.

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs
One of my favorite Steel books, set around the time of WWI, Oliva and Victoria Henderson are identical twins, with very different personalities and desires. One fateful decision in their 21st year, changes the course of both their lives.

Born.A.Reader I have 3 or 4 Steel favorites and they were all written in the 80s, back when her books had historical substance and weren't ghost written. I like her books now, but mostly I consider them a pallet cleanser, as they're vastly different from her earlier works. 1mo
Eggs I‘ve really liked quite a few of them but I‘m fairly new to Steel. Many are meh. Thanks for the tip about the 80s ones. 1mo
