Review: The Constant Princess
The Constant Princess by Philippa Gregory
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
The best thing about this book was in gleaning the basics behind the formation of Spain, the presence of Moors in Europe and what happened before Henry VIII between him and the War of the Roses (which, let's be honest, I know vaguely about only because of a brief trip to York during university when I was actually more interested in the attraction with "AUTHENTIC VIKING SMELLS!"
I didn't really like the use of italics to switch narrative perspectives and I wasn't really fond of Katalina as a character either.
