The King's Curse
by Philippa Gregory
This is "just finished" review. Like I said, I always wonder why I buy every book by Gregory, even when I think "this is the last one".
This time, Gregory follows Margaret Pole. I liked the character, although I think that Gregory shows too much bias towards one side. This is not as clear here as it was in The White Princess, where it became completely clear and created plot lines completely no sense. Here it's understandable in the way that since it's about a woman that was born to the royal family that lost the throne to the Tudors and a faithful lady to Queen Katherine, it's normal that she doesn't love Henry VII or Anne Boleyn.
Gregory is a confort author. When there's nothing interesting enough in the book shop, her books are always a safe choice... Even with all her flaws.
