READING UP ON DANISH MONARCHS
Cnut IV The Holy is my favorite But the timeline of 18 alternating Christians or Fredericks in a row later on Is fantastic as well

📚 WITCHY NORDIC BOOKS
I’ve been reading more of these lately to try to feel more connected with my Danish heritage, and I love learning about runes and warring clans and ancient traditions and old magic

🐉 priory of the orange tree
as well as the prequel Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon. One of the best fantasy series I've ever read. Such a well thought out world with a deep history and different nations with unique cultures that help drive the story in an interesting way. Plus women are the powerful main characters!! I just love it so so much!!

📖 Wolf Hall and Wolf Hall 2: Bring Up The Bodies
Wolf Hall and Wolf Hall 2: Bring Up The Bodies are two of the best books ever. Hilary Mantel delivers a stunning portrait of Thomas Cromwell, the understated but supremely talented ‘blacksmith’s boy’ turned Secretary to Henry VIII. All sorts of things happen in these two books as he (Thomas Cromwell) navigates his way around a large cast of cunning characters and through a number of sticky situations. There is a third and final book (Wolf Hall 3: The Mirror and the Light) that I imagine is also one of the best books of all time but I haven’t read it yet but I did get it for Christmas so can look forward to reading it soon! -Charlie

Great high fantasy series. Does such a good job world building and putting characters in genuinely interesting circumstances. Plus, there’s like 20 books so you can stay in the world.

⚔️ ivanhoe
I'm working my way through some of the great literature of the 19th century, which over the last year has included Jane Eyre, Pride and Prejudice, Count of Monte Cristo. Ivanhoe, this story of Saxons vs Normans, knights, and high adventure, has been an unexpected pleasure. Next up: Middlmarch

Inserts cover because it’s so pretty. Modern ya retelling of the King Arthur legend, which I don’t know much to begin with as it is. I also recently finished rereading the cruel prince which was so so good
