Giveaway: The Queen’s Governess

61

Just when I think I’ve read every possible book imaginable on the Tudor time period, along comes another one to grab my attention. Such is the case with Karen Harper’s latest book, The Queen’s Governess. The book is a wonderful story about Elizabeth I’s governess, Kat Ashley. So little is known about Kat, and this was a marvelous story with Kat as the narrator. I felt I knew her a little better. Harper also goes into nice detail at the end for why she made certain choices in terms of storyline, names, and fictional assumptions.

I enjoyed it, and I know you will also.

To enter, leave a message on this post by Friday, February 11th. I’ll choose a winner at random and announce the lucky guy or gal the next day.
