She did and I got a copy off Netgalley and skim-read it. it's as incesty as you fear (plus bonus "well actually his relationships with all his favourites were incestuous because they were married to his nieces").
also it's so, so, so funny how she justifiably cracked the shits about Alison Weir's batshit "Edward II paid for his household knights, it was probably for sex" and goes "huh weird that Edward paid this woman so much for talking with him..." with the obvious implication he was paying her for sex.
Hold on, Kathr*n Warn*r recently published a book exclusively about Edward II's sexuality and relationships?
#also her supporting evidence for her incest fanfic is all just... really bad?#there's no effort to show the things she says shows eleanor acting as edward's 'wife' are actually present in the middle ages#'edward showed concern for her in her pregnancy!' yeah and edward iii did the same with blanche of lancaster. were they fucking?#not to mention her definition of 'pharisee' literally comes from google.com#(which she uses to say eleanor NOT despenser was isabella's true enemy)#it's kinda funny how she's basically recreated the pgregs girlboss fights complete with the incest kink she once decried as as disgusting#also i am super uncomfortable with the way she debunks the claims that isabella was mistreated.#like it's 2024 can we stop with pretending some people “just don't have the personality” to be abuse victims?#also uncomfortable with the way she talks about sexuality in general#conversating#tw incest
