Yes yes yes!!! Why wasn‘t this made a movie or series?? It was from the beginning very interesting, but continued to climax!! As you go between one character and the other and everybody just trying to keep from the gallows in Henry VIII kingdom!!! Must read!!!

I am using the tagged book for the Informative prompt for @ravenlee 's #covid19challenge

ravenlee Wow, you‘re blazing through this challenge! I‘m only halfway, and you‘re 2/3 done! 5y
Birdsong28 @ravenlee Thank you. It's giving me something to concentrate on which I really appreciate ❤️😘 5y
ravenlee Glad to be of service! 😁 Honestly, I just wanted something that was a little challenging but not over the top. So many of the quarantine reading challenges I‘ve seen are both really long and require some concentration that I just don‘t have right now. I can stretch a little on either of those things but not both at the same time! 5y

Very good. Interesting account of a person that has been vilified throughout history as someone who helped to bring down her brother and Sister in law (George and Anne Boleyn) and Catherine Howard . Even though this is a debut book you can see the influence her husband the prominent Tudor historian John Guy as the writing style is similar as it just flowed and read like a novel and the wealth of research that has gone into it. More in comments

Birdsong28 Even though there are plenty of times when she states that she can't be sure what Jane was doing at the time due to the lack of documents, but this happens with a lot of Tudor documents as a lot has either not been written down or lost down the years, so you are left with other prominent people and their story so you only really get Jane's story at the start and end of her life as that was when she was the star player.

I have not been able to put this down!!! This is such a good book!! This is one that definitely should have made a series or movie!!!!

Butterfinger You only hear about Lady Jane Grey in school. I appreciate this book so much for enlightening us about the sisters' roles. All three had a hard life and amazing stories. Hopefully Starz will do one. 5y

She catches the kings eye within moments of arriving at court, setting in motion the most dreadful machine of politics, intrigue and treason that she does not understand.... here we go ... oh that Henry VIII 😬

I have enjoyed the Boleyn Story tremendously. The drama surrounding the Tudor court, the royal family and King Henry was enough to keep me turning the page!
