Ive read the Constant Princess, The Virgin's lover, The Queen's fool and The other Boleyn Girl. All great reads in the Tudor times.  |
YES I did
! I loved it - it was so delicious, wasn't it? I read it about a year ago and just finally ordered the rest of that series, which I'll start after finishing the Henry the 8th book.
Do you like classic lit? I mean, Jane Austen, for example - but if you like that era, I can't recommend highly enough Anthony Trollope's "The Eustace Diamonds". It's almost sacrilege to say this...but I almost think his book beat Austen in this case.
