bellebelly 's review for:

The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory
3.0

I was excited to read this because I couldn't put The Other Boleyn Girl down. Although I enjoyed it, I didn't like it nearly as well. The story was just not quite as compelling, and it seemed like the stakes weren't as high.

I did enjoy the multiple perspectives, but got a little tired of Katherine and Jane's chapters since I had to reinterpret everything they said because they are such unreliable narrators. I do see why Gregory thinks Anne of Cleves is an interesting figure, though, and I enjoyed her chapters.
