The Queen’s Fool by Philippa Gregory

August 2, 2007

threestars.jpg  Hannah Verde is a seer – she can see into the future and what truly lies beneath the surface of Queen Catherine’s perfect court.  She is a Jew in secret and must never tell anyone or she will be killed.  I thought this was an interesting book, but there wasn’t nearly enough suspense or action.

The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory

July 13, 2007

fourstars.jpg  This is the untold story of Mary Boleyn, sister of Anne Boleyn – doomed Queen of England.  She has to stand by and watch as King Henry is manipulated by her own sister.  I thought it was an amazing book that really told the story from Mary Boleyn’s point of view.
