That book is still only out in paperback, right? Ordered some of her other books recently. Including a few about Henry VIII. Am currently reading Margaret George's autobiography novel about him. It's interesting to read things from his point of view. (Wish I could find another like it. Perhaps with different Henrys.)
Have you read The Queen's Secret yet? It's the novel about Catherine of Valios.

Little Dorrit - Charles Dickens
Loved the Masterpiece Theatre version, so I couldn't resist buying it.  Love it so far.

No I haven't. Plaidy has so many books I want to read and the library doesn't have none 
I'm reading Catherine Parr: Henry VIII's Last Love by Susan James. It's good so far and there's not many non-fiction books about her so it's really interesting. _________________  banner by Aredhel Ar-Feiniel

It's good so far and there's not many non-fiction books about her so it's really interesting. Um, I have an extra copy of it. Where are you, again? Theres several Plaidy books I am trying to find online. And a couple US reissues I am waiting for.
I finished Margaret George's book. Was pretty good too.
Now reading Henry VIII- The King and His Court by Alison Weir. _________________

^ I'm from Finland. None of her books have been translated and there's kinda limited collection of books in english. And there's not much of historical books in general...
I'm reading The Thistle and the Rose by Jean Plaidy. It's been good so far.

Have you tried Book Depository? They have most of her books. All in English.
Oh, I just read that one. It was alright. Should have been longer. _________________

^ Maybe I should try. At least the books are cheaper there than here...
I started The Queen's Sorrow by Suzannah Dunn. I thought it would be better...

Yes, check it out. It is a good site.
Ordered the three Suzannah Dunn historical novels used. Was very curious. But not into them at all. Bleh!
