Shakespeare's Lady Reviewed
Book Blurb:
...a love story between William Shakespeare and the Dark Lady from his sonnets. The author, Alexa Schnee, took what facts she could find about Shakespeare and Emilia Lanier, the woman she postulates is the mysterious woman from his famous poems, and has built a romance around them. It dances on the line between fact and fiction, and brings the true facts—about Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth, Tudor society—to life in a way a history book never could.
My Thoughts:
I was surprised when I received this book in the mail. It was a pleasant surprise as I am an avid fan of the Tudor era. I was drawn into the world of William Shakespeare and I didn't want to leave. This is a book that you will want to savor and enjoy. I know I will read it again. I highly recommend it! Thanks to Guideposts for the advanced copy to read! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
