Obsessions include Henry VIII, early imperial Roman history, and diet and nutrition. Love books on paper.

Elizabeth of York by Alison Weir (nonfiction 2013)
Ms. Weir appears to have taken to heart some criticism of her non-fiction work. In this mostly absorbing book about Henry VIII's mother, she sticks to the primary sources and uses qualifiers when presenting her own analysis. It was great except a few sections that were just lists of what the Queen bought, instead of conclusions that might be drawn from such.
