Hello, and happy almost-Spring! Today, before we get into our books, we’re talking about historical figures. Specifically, which historical figures we’d bring back from the dead and what we would do with them during our day of hanging out. This question was harder than we thought! And for books today, we’ve got a family saga, and a couple of royal historical fiction novels. Thanks so much for listening!
