A review by booksaloha
The White Queen by Philippa Gregory
2.0
her latest books have not been as interesting--this was repetitive, and while a bit more engaging than The Red Queen, still lacks the intrigue of The Boleyn Inheritance, The Constant Princess, The Wise Woman, and of course The Other Boleyn Girl. (my favorites of Gregory.)
my chief complaint is this: did anyone notice the glaring editorial errors?!! with Edward, Elizabeth says she has 3 daughters before her son Edward is born--Elizabeth, Mary, and Cecily. (p. 150.) Later she has Anne, Catherine and Bridget. but then in the end of the book she keeps referring to her "5 daughters," leaving Mary out twice--she had 6. it's like Gregory just couldn't be bothered to be consistent. (and no, Mary is not the baby girl who dies, she comes later.) the editors missed that one--twice. argh.
