This is such a fun list! I don’t end up reading a ton of European history (no idea why), but this book offers some good starting points. I have She Wolves on my shelf now, but I haven’t made time to read it. It sounds great.
She Wolves is amazing! I really can’t praise it enough. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did whenever you get around to reading it!

Was looking for nice blog site. It was invaluable for me. Keep sharing this kind of ideas in the foreseeable future as well. It was actually a few things i was looking for, that i’m glad to came below! Thanks for revealing the such information with us
She Wolves was so interesting! I had almost zero knowledge of any of those women before then; it was fascinating. I’ll have to check out some Alison Weir. (I love women’s history!)
She was was amazing! I didn’t know much about the women discussed either- I learned a ton! Weir writes very well about the women in her books- she’s one of my favorites!
What an awesome topic to cover! She Wolves is now on my list for sure. I watched The White Queen miniseries earlier this year; it was sort of disappointing, but definitely got me interested in the time period and Margaret of Anjou.
She Wolves is great; I really really enjoyed it! I haven’t seen The White Queen; it sucks that it was disappointing but I’m glad it got you interested in the era- Margaret of Anjou was fascinating woman!
These are terrific. I started a project a year or so ago to experience English history through books, but I got sidetracked. The medieval period is about where I need to pick up and now I have a ready-made list — thanks!
What an interesting project! Glad I could be of help!
Great list! I love reading about Medieval history. A couple of months ago I read Montaillou, by Emmanuel Le Roy Laudrie. It’s a micro-history of daily life in a Medieval French town and is absolutely incredible.
I haven’t heard of Montaillou but it sounds really interesting! Thanks- I’m going to look it up as it seems like it would be something that I would love!
