This, along with some other Philippa Gregory books, has been on my shelf for a very long time.

Yes yes yes!!! Why wasn‘t this made a movie or series?? It was from the beginning very interesting, but continued to climax!! As you go between one character and the other and everybody just trying to keep from the gallows in Henry VIII kingdom!!! Must read!!!

I have not been able to put this down!!! This is such a good book!! This is one that definitely should have made a series or movie!!!!

She catches the kings eye within moments of arriving at court, setting in motion the most dreadful machine of politics, intrigue and treason that she does not understand.... here we go ... oh that Henry VIII 😬

I have enjoyed the Boleyn Story tremendously. The drama surrounding the Tudor court, the royal family and King Henry was enough to keep me turning the page!

Continuing the fascinating journey into the Tudor court and the scheming Boleyn and Howard family 🤓🤩

I have a few of the books but I am still missing I think more than what I have! And of course the first two I could not find! #thewhitequeen #theredqueen ughhhh 😤 i need those books 📚

#ayupaugust #swingthemood Reading this book, with its three very different narrators, felt very much like going through mood swings at times!

I hit a cool milestone in Goodreads today. 1000 books on my Read shelf. I started using Goodreads 10 years ago and the tagged book was the first one I shelved as read in May 13, 2009. So that's 1000 books in 10 years 🤪. I wish I had kept a count of how many I'd read up til then (I was 35 at the time so it had been a lot lol)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Another great one! In fact, I think this may be my favorite of the series so far! I especially love that it focused on women we don‘t know much about.

Who else loves to read in bed? I certainly do!

It‘s been a rainy day, but this book is keeping me company inside.

After talking to kids all today, I‘m ready to relax with a good book and some chocolate!

I‘m trying to read the Plantagenet & Tudor novels in order, but my collection is missing a huge chunk of them in the middle! So I‘m jumping forward to the tagged, lol

This is Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk. He was the worst. While reading this book and the one before it, I kept thinking of that quote from All‘s Well that Ends Well: “Me think‘st thou art a general offence and every man should beat thee.” The fact that he kept getting family members and associates executed while living to tell more tales is maddening.

Excellent book, however! It‘s particularly great to see Anne of Cleves given a voice.

Up next. Still not sure how I felt about the last one so a review will have to wait. Honestly, I cant believe this Henry VIII kick Ive been on. Someone save me

I love this period of history but honestly I just couldn't wait to be done with the book. It's good, just not great

I love anything dealing the Henry viii's wives. #historicalheroines #feistyfeb @RealLifeReading

ICYMI, I adore all royal related fiction. Currently rewarding myself for a grant biographical sketch well done. Any suggestions for after I finish this one?? #treatyoself

So middle school me got so nervous reading this that I had to stop. Now present day me, who has a fanatical interest in the Tudors, has finally decided to give it another try. #historylit
