---

Wolf Hall completely pulled me in — Mantel brings history to life with such vivid detail and complex, human characters. It’s smart, dramatic, and philosophical, all while exploring big questions about power, identity, and how we live. I found the pacing of the last few pages to be brilliant and the overall effect profound.
