Finally starting my #bookspin which looks like it will be a quick read! It sure started off with a bang! #offwithherhead
pickA prequel to the two previous books in the Her Majesty‘s Royal Coven series
1536 and Anne Boleyn had just been beheaded accused of witchcraft. As we go on the hunt for who betrayed The Queen, we are also told of the history of the last 10 yrs
This didn‘t quite live up to my expectations. I loved the previous books in this series and have completely lost myself in the stories. This prequel was too short for me to lose myself in it.

Continue with the buddy reads; Trans Like Me #SheSaid, Dark Fire #ShardlakeBR and finish The Hound of the Baskervilles #NoPlaceLikeHolmes
I‘ve just started Cold Enough for Snow
Then I want to get to Hotel du Lac and Queen B
Hopefully I‘ll get a start on The Echoes
pickThis prequel to the HMRC series starts with the death of witch Anne Boleyn, then covers events before and after her death. The story adds layers to the other books in the series but doesn‘t require them to be read to enjoy this. I do think some story elements could have been fleshed out a bit more here, making this a lower pick.
pickA standalone in the HMRC series, this goes back to the founding of HMRC through queen Anne Boleyn. It's every bit as good as the first two books in the series with the added bonus of being set in the Tudor era. A big yes!

A prequel novella to Dawson's HMRC series.
It's an alternate historical fantasy based on the historical figures of Anne Boleyn and her ladies-in-waiting.
The story didn't grip me like the other books in the series. It wasn't just the usual depiction of promiscuous Anne or Anne the witch that didn't sit well with me, what pulled me out of the story most often were the anachronisms used ⬇️
