Oh do tell, I study early modern Britain and I love hating on Phillipa "I never met a historical fact I wasn't allergic to" Gregory

[sparklywalls]

Basically, from what I remember of those very few pages before I threw my mum's book across the room, it's just an endless internal monologue about how she had the hots for her uncle and is sad he's dead. So yeah, Gregory is running with one theory (Richard may have wanted to marry his niece, though a lot of historians dispute that being A Thing*) and making it super gross.

*(He possibly explored the idea but there is evidence of him looking at other non-related women iirc, so it's not like it had to be his niece or nothing. His main issue was his wife and legitimate heir were both dead. Any fertile woman would do at that point!)

I know what you mean. The Wars of the Roses is one of my areas of interest so I'm a sucker for reading ANY of it but her books are too much. And the adaption of The White Queen was just baaaaad. For example, the Battle of Bosworth FIELD fought in August being in a FOREST with SNOW/RAIN. And for some reason Margaret Beaufort showed up *during a battle* to slobber all over her son about his epic victory after the killing blow because fuck accuracy.
