The King's Curse by Philippa Gregory
4.0

Fictionalized history done well is always a rare treat. This is a great read if you are familiar with Tudor history and its political players (of which there are many). This novel is from the point of view of Lady Margaret Pole, one of the Plantagenets and the oldest victim of Henry VIII's execution frenzy. Really enjoyed being at the center of the Tudor Court from the White Rose perspective-very imaginative, yet true to historical events.
