The Red Queen by Philippa Gregory and Book Swap

Come out to Char Bar for drinks, food, and lovely company as we discuss The Red Queen for the month of December

If you'd like to participate in the book swap, bring a used (or new if you don't have a copy you want to part with) book that you loved and wrap it! You can optionally include a small note on the outside to detail why you loved it, but don't make it too obvious what's inside! It's a great opportunity to walk out with a well loved book.

Book Description:
The Red Queen tells the story of the child-bride of Edmund Tudor, who, although widowed in her early teens, uses her determination of character and wily plotting to infiltrate the house of York under the guise of loyal friend and servant, undermine the support for Richard III and ultimately ensure that her only son, Henry Tudor, triumphs as King of England.

Through collaboration with the dowager Queen Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret agrees to a betrothal between Henry and Elizabeth's daughter, thereby uniting the families and resolving the Cousins War once and for all by founding of the Tudor dynasty.
