Daughter of York Audiobook

" I am a huge fan of Anne Easter Smith and this book did not disappoint. While some of the plot point are more far fetched than in her previous novels they are easily overlooked because of the connection you feel to Margaret of York. "

" Currently reading,so far it is very pleasing! "

" I didn't enjoy this book as much as the author's first novell, but it was still decent. A lot of history, she's done her homework. "

" I LOVED a Rose for the Crown and had high hopes for this book - unfortunately it did not live up to my hopes - there was much less romance and passion - and also less description of life at the time - if felt rushed and underdeveloped - I do not know if she had a deadline and I know she has two more in the pipeline - it is my hope they are closer to the first one (also the first one had more real history behind it so that may be why it was so much better) "

" Edward IV's sister Margaret is not a historical figure one reads about very often. She's one of those characters always on the fringe of the main story. It's a shame as she had quite an interesting life! I loved this book. It is well written and certainly not repetitive in subject matter. "

" This book was ok. It was very hard to get into and really slow for a while. The details are fantastic and so is the story, esp'ly since this there isn't very much real history about Margaret. It was a tough life back then, even for a royal. "

" Another Anne Easter Smith masterpiece. Beautifully written. "

" I really enjoyed this book. If school history text books had been this interesting I would have enjoyed history class even more! The fiction parts make the real characters live and you get to thinking about the real reasons behind wars and intrigue. A fun and informative read. "

" This took forever to read. I enjoyed it but, boy, it is about 200 pages too long. Where was the editor - out to lunch? "

" I just couldn't get into this book. I loved A Rose for the Crown, but this was just...not so good. Maybe because there isn't much information about Margaret, but just enough to be limiting? "

" Very interesting, liked it alot "

" This was my least favorite of the 3 books written by Anne Easter Smith about the infamous Plantagenets & Yorks of "War of the Roses." Naturally, I enjoyed the viewpoint of a smart, strong, powerful woman in medieval times. "

" Engrossing historical fiction from the female perspective for once. "

" This was an very well written book. I really liked where she left it off and I think the author did a great job of protraying margaret as a real human. It was a little long but I can't imagine taking anything out of it "

" very itneresting take of this story, told from the perspective of Margaret. Not a fast read -- lots of detail, etc. "

" The first part of the book seems very slow. But 2nd half is good, and well worth reading. "

" Excellent account of Margaret Of York! "

" Another well-researched historical fiction by Easter. This story runs in parallel to "A Rose for a Crown," and tells the story of Margaret of York, sister to Edward IV and Richard III. I am enjoying the read. "

" I liked the other so much that I couldn't resist starting this one! Will let you know how it is soon! "

" A surprising nice book by Anne Easter Smith telling the saga of Margareth of York, duchess of Burgundy. I am looking forward to read her first novel. "

" Not the kind of book I usually read, but this historical fiction novel really did it for me after it got started. It is a long one, but the writing is terrific, and the change of pace from today's chicklit was great for me. "

" This book tells the the story of Richard III's sister and takes place during the same time as A Rose for the Crown. Some of the same charactors are in both books. I enjoyed the different perspectives of some of the same events. "

" Once again, another historical fiction of the royals. Good writing, way too long. "

" This was a pretty well written historical novel, I had hopes for more romance. but if you are interested in the specific histories of the britich monarchy with a touch of fictional enhancment this is well worth the 600+ pages. "

" Edward IV's sister Margaret is not a historical figure one reads about very often. She's one of those characters always on the fringe of the main story. It's a shame as she had quite an interesting life! I loved this book. It is well written and certainly not repetitive in subject matter. "

" Listening to the audiobook. 2hrs. out of 44hrs down and I'm liking it a lot. "

" Started out really strong and then kind of faded... "

" As usual, the character comes alive, and you feel you've become initmately acquainted with Margaret of York, and her life. "

" I thought this was an really interesting look at the life of female royalty. I also liked that it was partly in England and partly in Burgundy (specifically Bruges, since we just visited there). "

" The first part of the book seems very slow. But 2nd half is good, and well worth reading. "

" This was my least favorite of the 3 books written by Anne Easter Smith about the infamous Plantagenets & Yorks of "War of the Roses." Naturally, I enjoyed the viewpoint of a smart, strong, powerful woman in medieval times. "

" I really liked this book. I thought it was well written and explored the whole Margaret of York and Anthony Woodville possible connection. It also introduced Percy Warbuck (not sure this is the right spelling) idea of a royal pretender. This is a whole new era for me. "

" This book should have been a short story. "

" I was torn between this one just being ok and liking it - at times it felt like it dragged, but the research was well done and Margaret of York was an interesting woman. The love story aspect (which is fiction) didn't add as much for me as I think the author would have liked. "
