I've read quite a few of her novels but historical fiction is my favorite genre anyway. I missed that one though, I will add it to my list.
I LOVED Katherine, also Avalon (10th century England), The Winthrop Woman (early America), and Dragonwyck (NY, 1800s). Also read My Theodosia, not as good as the others but still enjoyed it. Right now I'm just about done with "And Ladies of the Club", which starts right after the Civil War in Waynsboro, IN. It's good, but a little dry? Not sure how to describe it. It is interesting historically but she doesn't seem to get that emotionally involved with the characters (there are quite a few to keep track of as well).
