This was a super fast paced read. Philipa Gregory does a great job of making history into page-turner novels. I like the way that she adds her own historical speculations to the plot adding elements that have not been historically proven. It made the story more mysterious, enigmatic, and enjoyable. I enjoyed the fast pace. I enjoyed the romance in the first part of the novel, and I loved all the complicated history so clearly represented at the end. I really admire her ability to have made this dark period in English history intriguing and myseterious.
