I really think She Wolves is too early/non-Tudor - it covers the Empress Matilda, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Isabella of France, and Margaret of Anjou. So you still have a nomination left, Vanessa.

How about
?
No problem. Yeah, it's getting to be an issue; we've read a lot of the books already (or they're older and harder to find). Next month I may just start over with eligibility; an awful lot of us weren't here when some of these books were 'read.'
Falling Pomegranate Seeds: The Duty of Daughters<Happy New Year to all! My Katherine of Aragon novel came so close last time, I just had to post it again!
Sorry, it took me a while to submit my nominations but I've been immersed in
which I just completed. While I absolutely recommend it, there is zero Tudor content in it, so instead I will nominate
by Benjamin Woolley and
by Harry Kelsey.
I will nominate In Search of a Kingdom: Francis Drake, Elizabeth I, and the Perilous Birth of the British Empire and A Dead Man in Deptford, and with that I will close nominations.
The poll is now open. You'll find it at the top of the group's Polls page, the bottom of its Home page, or here: https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/2... .
I'm advocating for The Queen's Conjurer. I've dipped in and out of it for research purposes and have found it to be well-researched, wonderfully written, and full of evocative details of the time.

If it's in a series, can it be easily read as a stand-alone? If not, you might want to nominate the first book in the series, or the most recent book in it the group has not read together.
Can't remember what we've already read as a group? (Sometimes I can't, either.) There's a "group-reads" shelf on the group's Bookshelf.
Two nominations to a person, please.
