To Be A Queen- Annie Whitehead ~ 'Cum Laude' ~ So Exciting- 5 Stars!

So glad that I saw Annie Whitehead's book link on twitter and downloaded this book. I enjoyed it so much that I read it right through although I had an important ARC to read! I will get one of the others right now on my kindle.

Aethelflaed was the Lady of the Mercians, was the daughter of Alfred the Great. Since I just finished a couple books on this period in medieval Britain I was glad to read more about Alfred and was very glad also to read about Edward, her brother. The majority of my genetic heritage is from Ireland and this area of Britain, and this book was thrilling to read.


Especially important is the author's great knowledge of this period and her grasp of how important is this history. 5 stars and am on to the next one and then to the 7th century and Penda.
