Thanks, Shardlakians, for being so accommodating to everyone. I went for the halfway point to hopefully be fair to all of us. The discussion date over the whole TOME of a book will be on 10/15. I've already read fab reviews of those who finished. Hopefully that will work for everyone. 💛💜🧡

The book was long (881 pgs.) but was a very interesting read. 1549. Two years after the death of Henry VIII and the economy in collapse, inflation rages and the peasantry are rebelling. Shardlake is in the service of Henry's daughter, Lady Elizabeth. John Boleyn has been arrested for killing his wife. Shardlake is trying to prove his innocence. I look forward to the next book and recommend this series to those who love Historical Mysteries.

EadieB @Tove_Reads What did you do think of it? (edited) 7y

Tove_Reads I like it, but wasn‘t my fave in the series. I seem to prefer the books set in London for some reason. The surprise twist in the end that will have an impact on future works was intriguing. Was happy to see Shardlake and Barak working together! Such sad events in the book. (edited) 7y

EadieB @Tove_Reads it will probably be a year before we get the next one since we are now caught up. 7y

Tove_Reads Could be even longer ☹️ Luckily we have many other authors to read! 7y

EadieB @Tove_Reads What is our next Follett book? 7y

Tove_Reads I think

Code to Zero

EadieB @Tove_Reads Good! That‘s the one I‘ve ordered from the library. 7y

Eggbeater That's amazing! Can you see straight now? 7y

Linsy Impressive! 😲 7y

EadieB @Eggbeater I went to bed @9:00 pm because I was very tired. Got up @ 2:00 am yesterday but I usually read 10 to 12 hrs a day anyway so it was about 5 extra hours a day. I do some audios so that gives the eyes rest too. 7y

EadieB @wordzie @Crazeedi @Elma @Linsy Thanks for your comments! 7y

Did you get your copy yet? I need to read this soon as my book is due back on February 23rd.

Tove_Reads, Andrew65

Tove_Reads @EadieB No sorry, 4th on hold (the library has 4 copies in total). @Andrew65 (edited) 7y

EadieB @Tove_Reads @Andrew65 I‘ll have to put another hold on because I know I won‘t be able to renew it right away. Or maybe I‘ll just read it and make notes so I can participate when you guys read it. 7y

Andrew65 @Tove_Reads Let us know when you get it @EadieB 7y

EadieB @Tove_Reads We have 2 weeks for new books and 3 wks for all others. 7y
