The Red Queen by Philippa Gregory
5.0

First off, Margaret Beaufort was BAT-SHIT CRAZY!! And for her to be such "HOLY" she sure was maliciously ambitious and often green with envy. But considering she was married off at 12 years old (Gawd, she was 13 when she gave birth to King Henry VII) and had no more education . . . Maybe she didn't mature mentally . . . I don't know! But even though I am able to get a version of her story that helps me to sympathize with her . . . I still don't like her.

Props to Philippa Gregory. This was well written (of course it was) and I loved it.
