jc3smama 's review for:

The White Queen by Philippa Gregory
3.0

This book got me into the War of the Roses or Cousin's wars. I had some issues with the book - mostly the fanciful interpretation of the use of magic and witchcraft. I know it's based in history - but I find the use of witchcraft in history to be an excuse to kill strong/smart women not something that is factual. Nevertheless - it has some interesting theories. I'm reading Alison Weir's War of Roses at the same time - so very interesting comparing notes. I am interested in completing the series and finishing the comparison's of Gregory's view vs. other authors.
