The White Queen


The White Queen tells the story of how Elizabeth Rivers went from being a widow with two sons to being the Queen of England. The story starts off with her romantic encounter with the Prince of York, future King of England. Elizabeth's husband had just died fighting a war between the Yorks and Lanchaster family. Being close to the once ruling Lanchaster family, Elizabeth finds it hard to accept her alternative fate. However, looking into the eyes of Henry, the new York King, she recognizes a new hope. A hope that would change her fate forever. This book is interesting because it depicts the realistic scenes of the English court during the time. It is both romantic and mysterious, as it involves the mystery of two princes who disappeared in the tower of London.

Personally, I love romance and mystery novels, so this book was a page turner for me.
