This book then appeared on the new book shelf at the library. It is low key entertaining, I had to check the book out twice to get through it. You can only take so much at a time. I did learn one thing I had wondered about over the years; Eliz I died from infected tonsils, most authors just mentioned she nodded her head and died. Also saw the movie at the library for free, saved $$. The portrayal of Prince Phil met my expectations; real comdey there. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/474899?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
