A review by zeldasayre
The Dead Queens Club by Hannah Capin
3.0
This is a very frustrating book to rate, let alone review without spoiling because the problem(s) I had with the book are definitely spoiler-y for the ending. This had the opportunity to be a really, really good book but it’s just bogged down by the “quirky” main character (seriously, I love snark like anyone else but the MC was EXHAUSTING) and the fact that she was a self proclaimed feminist when her actions/words/thoughts were anything but.
However, I did appreciate the amount of actual Tudor history the author included. You could tell that the motivations and characteristics of each character were thoroughly researched so that was fun to read. There were a couple of laugh out loud moments, too. Unfortunately as a whole, this book just wasn’t my cup of tea.
