Title: What a Woman Had to Do
Review: To begin with, Phillapa Gregory is one of the most inspiring authors I have ever come across. She writes with such detail its like the words create a perfect video for you. While this book is different from her others because this is based on a fiction character (unlike her Tudor novels) it is just as good and as well written. Many of the reviews talk poorly about the main character, Beatrice, because of all of her selfish and somewhat sick motives, what they may not understand is this is what she had to do as a woman in that time period. Back then women were given no respect and men were given everything automatically (even though most of them were selfish pigs). So to get even an ounce of respect she had to be just like the men. I feel like back in those days women had to go even farther than men in terms of backstabbing to get what they wanted in life. So I would most definitely recommend reading this book and the two after in the series.
