"So weaken, lose your strength. Let your right arm fail, let your sword arm grow weak, let your hand lose its grip. Take one breath and feel it catch in your chest. Take another and feel choked. Sicken and weary. And burn up like this." The cord flares in the fireplace and I watch it burn away." The visuals of this curse are something else. Just knowing Richard will die in the battlefield, tired, alone and betrayed.

The thing about loving history and always wanting to know more about it and study it all the time is knowing where this is going, how it's going to end and feeling wretched 😭 Philippa brings this historical characters to life, makes them human so easily that I'm heart broken and suffering by anticipation already. Gosh.

This is getting so heart wrenching. 😭 But still I can't help but love Philippa Gregory's writing. I'm really enjoying her books.

Me trying to understand these battle scenes 😵‍💫

"Then you are the man I married. For the man I married was a brave young man, and you are a brave man still. The man I married had not known fear, nor had he a son, nor did he know love. But all these things have come to us and we are changed by them, but not spoiled by them.He looks at me gravely."You mean this?" "I do," I say. "And I too have been very afraid;but I am not afraid with you here again." I love them
