But really, it is always nice when someone, whether it is an author, actor, singer, etc., lives up to the idea you have of them in your head. He could've totally been like, nope you are crazy. Instead he started the conversation by asking me what I thought of Eleanor of Aquitaine and I lost the power of speech for about twenty seconds before saying, "She's extraordinary."Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Takenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507006809241347635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-25252053774087363682019-07-16T11:27:07.018-05:002019-07-16T11:27:07.018-05:00I saw that on her blog!

He is about the only author whose books I MUST buy - but this is a little deceptive because I do not typically keep books once I am done with them; I resell them to get new books. There are a couple authors who I always make a point to request the library purchase their books so I can read them - like Matthew Lewis, who writes a lot about Richard III and that era. He's got a new book coming out about Matilda and Stephen that I am really looking forward to.Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Takenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507006809241347635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-81910054092089342962019-07-16T11:24:44.941-05:002019-07-16T11:24:44.941-05:00It really was just great.

In the weeks leading up to the event, I joked he should just cancel it so we could hang out and talk about Eleanor of Aquitaine. Obviously the canceling part didn't happen, but we talked for a good fifteen-twenty minutes afterwards. I hope you enjoy his books as much as I do - he's got a new one coming out this fall about the Crusades that I am super stoked for.Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Takenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507006809241347635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-78770365462953313802019-07-16T11:22:36.991-05:002019-07-16T11:22:36.991-05:00No worries, I get all googly over Jones, it is per...No worries, I get all googly over Jones, it is perfectly fine :)Sarah @ All The Book Blog Names Are Takenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12507006809241347635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080051275665594538.post-23172193745220922462019-07-16T11:14:22.179-05:002019-07-16T11:14:22.179-05:00He is awesome!

It is a great series. I asked him in STL if he would do anymore and he said it basically is a money thing right now as to why the tv execs aren't doing it. I suppose it does cost a lot of money to move a crew around the UK, along with all their equipment and such.
