On my complaint about the names in the Philippa Gregory books: I should clarify that it's a pet peeve with this time in *English* history. Those are the particular humans that seem to name everyone the same few names. I'm not sure how many other areas of the world did the same thing. :P

Yay! Thanks for letting me know! I'll plan some up :D

I would love to see Wicca/Witchcraft book videos. I don't consider myself Wicca. I consider myself an eclectic witch if I had to choose a label. But I love learning all about everyone's practice no matter how they identify their practice.

Aw thank you for the feedback and support! I'm going to plan out a couple videos on the topic. :)

That series about Wiccan holidays sounds so cool!! My library has Yule, so I’m going to see what it’s like (even though I’m not Wiccan) :)

Oh, yay! I hope you enjoy it! The history is really interesting on its own (imho). Plus, a lot of the recipes sound tasty. :D

And your hair looks lovely :)

Oh yes, the Penric-Novellas are always so much fun! I finished the latest installment today and found out that there will be a physical omnibus of the first three stories next January called Penric's Progress, which I'm so happy about!

Ah, I didn't know there was going to be a physical copy out! I may have to pick that up just because ^___^ Thanks for letting me know!

Tip for pronuncing English cities & towns = they're not pronounced phonetically. There Warwick is actually is more like "Worick"!

LOL! Omg thank you for letting me know!! I've definitely been saying it wrong for a while then. ^^;;;;

Was it me that told you about The Cousins war series? Maybe ;) I hope you are enjoying it still :D Since I have read The white princess I've come to a division point between this series and her Tudor novels. I found in a used bookstore "3 sisters, 3 queens" recently, and I am thinking of passing this one in front of The king's curse and others in the Tudor novels. I heard this one starts off while king Henry VII is still in power and it will follow mostly Margaret Tudor, who becomes queen of Scotland. This Margaret is Henry VIII's sister (not Elizabeth's cousin). I had to make a research about all this, it's not simple at all :P So I am so excited about my new book that I will shift the order a bit, since it will start with Margaret as a child.

It was your comment! :D Thank you again for that! Haha, oof, see what I mean about the names?? It's hard to keep them straight with so many Margarets and Elizabeths and Henrys and Richards running around! :P For the most part I'm really enjoying the books, but I'm a little grumpy about The White Princess. Once I get my thoughts together, I'm going to do a review video on it, I think. It's hard, because I loved so much of the book (and her writing is always really lovely), but she made such odd decisions about Henry VII! Anyway, I'll save my ranting for the review, haha, but.. even with those grumpy feelings, I'm about to dive on into King's Curse. :P (Though also good to know about Three Sisters, Three Queens! Haha, you've got all the info on this series!!)

Winx & Ink I had a lot of difficulty warming up to The White Princess, even more than with The Red Queen. Because I already saw Margaret (that's her name, right? It's been a while) as a villain, I expected not to like her voice. But Elizabeth's daughter should be nicer, witchy like her mother and grandmother, I felt her as a traitor of her family for her own ambitions. I even like Anne more.

Winx & Ink Hehe I guess I've been reading the series for a few years already, but you're so much faster :) I only regret not having started earlier... I knew about the Tudor novels since that movie came out, The other Boleyn girl (that's the book it's based on anyway) but I wasn't too interested. I guess what called me to The White Queen was the suggestion of magic ✨ It really gives the story something special. You have been interested in wicca right? You might like The mists of Avalon, have you read it? 🙂 I had a wiccan phase when I was 15 (although I still have some of it in my heart even with me moving more towards buddhist beliefs now) and it was mostly because of this book, I loved it so much. I will look forward to your reviews on Philippa 😘
