And she would never know it.”

I hope you are all well. Blessings on you!
There is so much out there about Eleanor...and I am so glad...she truly is amazing...I. Love goodreads...I have met so many lovely people on it...
I can tell you love Eleanor :) I have not read a novel about her before To Be Queen, but after I definitely wanted to read more. I do love GR too and all the wonderful people and authors that I have met.
Alycia, I am so glad you read and liked TO BE QUEEN. I am completely devoted to Eleanor...can you tell? :) I am excited to hear that you are going to be diving into THE QUEEN'S PAWN...Eleanor is older in that novel, with a little more bitterness, but she is still her amazing self. Nothing gets her down. I truly admire her.I am so happy to be friends with you on Goodreads. I love this site!
Thank you for the friendship Christy! I just read To Be Queen and really enjoyed it. I'm looking forward to reading The Queen's Pawn. :)
