Thursday Book Teaser: The Forever Queen


Happy Thursday everyone!! How is everyone doing? I'm doing alright....the heat is killing me though. Gaaaaaaah. I hate summer so much. I hate the hot and humidness. >.< I like fall and spring. Not too hot, not too cold. Perfect. 

Well, today I'll be sharing a little snipbit from 'The Forever Queen' by Helen Hollick. Been meaning to read this one for a while now. 


Page Number: It's an ebook, so it is on 2%
Place on Page: Paragraph 2

"'It seems they approve of you, girl. Not that it matters, the populace detested my mother. It made not the slightest difference to her; she cared nothing for them either. Nor for my father. Still, it helps to be liked.'

Emma understood one or two of his words, as for the rest - ah, well, perhaps they were not important.

Inside the cathedral, her shoes, expensive leather slippers, scuffed gently on the red and black patchwork of the tiles that led from the great western door to the altar steps. Prestigious men dipped their heads as she passed by, her hand resting lightly on 
 Æthelred's arm, the women sinking into deep curtsies....."
