Decisions, decisions

Well, I'm down to the last few pages of The Wives of Henry VIII by Antonia Fraser. (Am I ever glad I didn't marry that man, find myself related to him or in any way know him - and I can't imagine how horrible his daughter must have been to get the moniker Bloody Mary after all he did.) I recommend the book if you are interested in any or all of Henry's six wives. But now I am faced with that tough but delightful decision - what to read next? I've been casting my eye over the shelves and piles but haven't made my selection yet. You'd think I'd have more important things to dwell on, wouldn't you? In my life with books this is one of my favourite moments - almost finished one good book and dreaming of starting the next.
