I finished this book the same day. It was a great ride.

The Queen's Fool

The Queen's Fool

by Philippa Gregory

I'm about halfway through this book about a young Jewish teenager surviving in the 1550s. She dresses as a boy to escape the inquisition in Spain. Then she keeps the clothes as a way to maintain her independance in London.

She catches the eye of some important Lords and ends up working as a "fool" for the court. She has the gift of "sight" but does not alway see the obvious things in front of her.

I started this book today and have not put it down until page 277. I am looking forward to how it turns out.
