inkstainedthumb 's review for:

The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory
5.0

Another well written book by [a:Philippa Gregory|9987|Philippa Gregory|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1351685194p2/9987.jpg]. In this book, she takes you on a journey of three women who were just pawns in the lives of powerful men who surrounded them and dominated their lives, she writes with so much insight into the lives of Henry VIII's fourth and fifth wives. It makes me grateful that I no longer live in a work where marriages were political affairs, and had little to do with love, especially when it came to court life. It was all about the prestige, the money, the politics and how you could advance your own family at whatever cost.
