Did anyone else here love that book? I just finished it last week and I'm currently reading Wideacre. I find that I love Philippa Gregory's style of writing, but I often loathe the characters. What do you all think?

I love The Otehr Boleyn Girl. Haven't read anything else yet though i want to get Queen's fool and The virgin queen. Those look cool. More into the whole biritsh royalty instead of the other stuff. Though i haven't read those yet.

<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.

Is this a book about another daughter of Anne Boleyn? My aunt was talking about her having more than one child, and as far as I've learned (I'm a history major with a British concentration in addition to a theatre major), she only had one child, so I'm interested to read this if it's what I think it is.

Wow, that was a mouthful. Carry on

It's actually about the sister of Anne Boleyn. Buy it. It's worth reading. And I really like Wideacre, but the incest sorta nauseates me.

If you like royal fiction, try anything by Carolly Erickson, a most amazing writer...... This lik lists 24 of her books
