Wolf Hall | Hilary Mantel

3.7 While I enjoyed the book, some things just didn't work for me. Everyone knows that Thomas Cornwell played a huge part in Henry VIII's rule. Mantel does a good job of bringing this time period to life. The thing that bothered me was that something in the book would happen, and she would go back and explain it with fact. I did the audiobook instead of reading the book, so that may have been part of the problem. I know that sometimes, ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read when you listen to a book, not everything comes across as good as if you actually read the book. I will continue the series because I enjoy learning new things, which I usually pick up in a historical fiction book. I end up going down the rabbit hole sometimes 🙃

Wow! That was spicy! I thought it was going to be a cute little romance! Of course, to me, who doesn't read very many romances, and if I do, it's usually an Amish one. Anything with sex in it is spicy to me😂 It was good, but the spicy stuff didn't add anything to it for me. I'm not sure if I will continue the series.

AlaSkaat My SiL told me that chapter 26 is wild. I never thought it would be that! 😅 I loved the atmosphere of the town. Maybe the cover influenced me too. But definitely agree the spicy bits didn‘t add anything to it. I hate that in movies also. Have you read or listened to it? I think me listening to it made it better 4mo
TheAromaofBooks Oh my, I have this on my TBR, but I tend to skip the spice 😂 4mo
