Some News and Another Update

If you've liked my Facebook page, then you'll have already seen the updates I'm about to tell you about. If you haven't liked my Facebook page...well, what are you waiting for? :p

The update is that I've categorized some more books (and finally got something other than historical fiction categorized), and I've also got a Pinterest page for the blog. You can find that here, or you can click on the link over on the right hand side of the page. Follow me on Pinterest and Facebook to stay completely updated with the going-ons in the literary world.

Speaking of the literary world, here's the news I mentioned. As you know, Philippa Gregory is my favorite author. Her books about the Tudors and the Cousins' War are amazing, and the more I read them, the more I'm convinced that I was born in the wrong time period. :p Well, she has a new book coming out this year (in the fall....so far away!), called The White Princess. It's going to be about Elizabeth of York, who marries Henry Tudor (Henry VII, the founder of the Tudor dynasty), and the early years of her marriage. I have been waiting for this book for awhile now, and this morning, this is what I saw on my Facebook newsfeed:

These are the cover images for the book! Aren't they beautiful?? These just got me even more excited about the book! And then, about an hour later, Philippa Gregory made me very, very happy when she released the first chapter of the book to be read online! Needless to say, I read it, and I'm already hooked! This is going to be another amazing book by an amazing author. I might have to reread her Cousins' War series (The Lady of the Rivers, The Red Queen, The White Queen, and The Kingmaker's Daughter) before this new one comes out.
