New Book


Yesterday I checked out Philippa Gregory’s new book! It’s about Henry the VIII and Anne Boleyn. I couldn’t  help thinking of the Henry’s Hermits song from 1965! Probably before your time.

I'm Henry the eighth, I am

Henry the eighth, I am, I am

I got married to the widow next door

She's been married seven times before

And every one was an Henry 

She wouldn't have a Willy or a Sam 

I'm her eighth old man, I'm Henry

Henry the eighth, I am

I have read a few chapters. It’s about the traitor of Anne, one of the ladies in her Court. I love this author💚

I've heard of the author (good things) and generally like historical fiction. I love being absorbed in a book!
