Did you know that the official designation of Princess Royal goes back a few centuries, but there have only been seven of them? Three were in the last century, including the current Princess Anne, said to be the hardest working royal. I recently received an ebook from NetGalley that explores the history of these extra special princesses. Click the link in my bio for my review of The Princess Royal: From Princess Mary to Princess Anne by Helen Cathcart #NetGalley #BookReview #PrincessAnne #QueenElizabethII #PrincessRoyal #NewBookRelease #ARCReview #dukeofedingburgh #newbooks #royalfamily #windsorfamily #windsormountbatten #bookstagram #booksta #instabooks #newbooks #reading #books
Mom is busting out of the hospital today. One final look at #lambeaufield from the tallest building in Green Bay. Nice view for Victory Monday.
The view from my mother’s hospital room and why you haven’t seen too much of me on Social the past few months. Surgery was aborted because of mom’s heart issues. We are very lucky to still have her with us, although she’s not going to be happy she still has her gall bladder drainage bag. Hopefully life will get back to normal soon, although after the past two months, this is the new normal. That’s historic #lambeaufield in the background on the left .Reviews to resume tbd. Thanks for all the support! #motherlove #afib #stvincenthospital #thankyouhealthcareworkers
Master storyteller Alice Hoffman is back with the conclusion of the Owens saga in #TheBookofMagic (#PracticalMagic 2.0) I'm a late comer to this series, having just read two of the novels last year. I normally don't read fantasy or like the genre, but you don't have to be a fan to love this series. It is so well written, I want a companion spell book with all the concoctions like courage tea.

You'd have to live under a rock to not know that television journalist Anderson Cooper was son to American heiress and famed designer Gloria Vanderbilt. He's admitted he considered himself much more a Cooper than a Vanderbilt and didn't pay much attention to his mother's side of the family. That's changed with Vanderbilt: The Rise and Fall of an American Dynasty by Anderson Cooper and Katherine Howe. Cooper and Howe explore the famous and infamous Vanderbilt family members in this easily digestible book.

#TheCollectorsDaughter: A Novel of the Discovery of #Tutankhamun's Tomb by @gill.paul1 #KingTut The story of #LordCarnarvon's daughter is a fascinating one and one I was eager to learn more about. I have no idea where my interest in Egyptology started. Did Nancy Drew ever go to Egypt? I can't remember, but archaeology and Egyptology have always fascinated me. Maybe it was in 1977-78, when King Tut's treasures were exhibited in the United States and my brother's #SteveMartin record had the parody song on it. I was lucky enough to see Tut's treasures in Chicago about a decade ago, and I'm still just as interested as ever. Gill Paul has found a way, once again, to weave fact and fiction into a storytelling masterpiece. I know I'll be revisiting Tut soon thanks to The Collector's Daughter.
