The Confession of Katherine Howard by Suzannah Dunn
3.0
The two main character in this book, Katherine Howard and Cat Tilney, are some of the least sympathetic characters I've come across. It remained a mystery to me why they'd become friends in the first place, and what anybody could possibly see in them romantically. At times I wanted to scream at Cat to man up and stand up to Katherine, pointing out the consequences of her actions to others as well as herself.
One thing I came away wondering is how on earth Henry VIII could be so ridiculous about his wives. Did he seriously go rushing from one wife to the next, leaving someone else to deal with the fallout when he got his head turned by someone new. Maybe he needed to man up as well.
While I seem to be a bit angry about this book and the people within, it was an enjoyable read, if not a mind glowingly exciting story.
