Let me just extend an exhuberant THANK YOU to for thinking of me when she read this book. I fell in love from the very first sentence. I have only gotten to the 7th chapter and have already found a random quote that I want to throw out at you:
“What’s one person’s diversion may be another’s supreme test. Ans so often we sit beside one another, unknowing.” *p31*
Every time I open the pages of this book I am transported…that’s no lie. I have always been fascinated with the queens of Africa, many times taking on the very likeness of them within myself.
This novel is so well written that it is truly helping me find my eloquence again. I am compelled to read Margaret George’s other works… at least Mary Queen of Scotland and the Isles.
I highly recommend this book and her others to anyone who is into unabashed quality writing.
