The (not so) Memoirs of Mary Queen of Scots

The Memoirs of Mary Queen of Scots - Carolly Erickson

Writing this on my ipad since hubby had to work late and is napping near the computer, so no fun gifs this time, and hopefully minimal typos.

 

I'll start by saying that I liked this enough to read more by Carolly Erickson. It was a good story, an imagining, and definitely entertained me. I'm on a bit of a Mary kick thanks to Reign, so I liked reading another perspective of her life and more ofher later years.  This is a work of fiction, and it really was quite fanciful. I almost wish it wasn't called "memoirs" because it really made me ache for something a little bit more historically accurate.  

 

Overall, an entertaining read that I liked. Solid three stars.
