Wow, what a terrible time to live in. I became overwhelmed at a few points at the idea that these people, these wars have actually happened. It made me so sad to know that brothers, cousins, and friends so easily have turned on each other for ambition of their own advancement. I find myself questioning the degree society has changed in the past 500 years. Can we say that we are really that different? 
 I read this book in just a few days. The novel moved at a good pace. I found myself sucked into the world of Elizabeth Woodville. 
 I am planning on reading the Red Queen next.
