Say hello to my longest read of the year. Not necessarily the longest book in terms of pages, but rather in terms of how long it took me to actually read this one!
I started this one at the beginning of July people and here it is September and I am just now finishing it! In fact I finished it last week and to be honest that shocked me.

I can’t imagine what it must have been like for her growing up not expecting to be queen only to have the position basically thrust upon her.
