Anne Boleyn: A King's Obsession by Alison Weir

jodij's review against another edition

emotional informative reflective tense medium-paced

4.0

I hated Anne Boleyn after reading the first book about Katherine of Aragon. Then I found myself liking Anne in the beginning of this book, but she became power hungry and I was back to hating her. But by the end I felt so sorry for her because through all her endeavors for becoming queen, she became just like Katherine in the end... Cast aside by Henry VIII. A sad story from being to end. 😭
