Seductive

While the characters seduce Henry and his court, so too does this book seduce readers as each page is turned. Readers may find it easy to follow the life of Anne Boleyn, who is both sassy and sultry; yet, we are forced to follow the emotions of her more subdued sister, Mary Carey. However, as the story progresses, we grow to love Mary's even-tempered perspective, while we shrink from Anne's ever-increasing power--and temper. As the story progresses, Mary emerges not as "the other Boleyn girl" but as the one who is stronger and, in the end, more seductive, for we have trusted only her to reveal the truth.

Great

I haven't read a book this good in quite sometime. I watched the movie and absolutely loved it and I thought I would read the book and like most movie books it was fantastic. It was so captivating I didn't want to put the book down I read it in 4 days. It was so refreshing to read I suggest this book for anybody who wants to read a great suspenseful story.

Characters were so alive, I thought I was a part of it all!

I have always been a big fan of English history so I immediately saw the movie based upon the book. Always wanting to find out more I bought the book myself and from the first page I was hypnotized. The characters are so vividly brought alive that I felt their fear, joy, love, and pain. I grieved with Mary and felt her sorrow for the death of her brother and sister regardless of the acts they did to get to the "chopping block". I am pleased to read the book from Mary's point of view; despite her being the "loser" you can't help but to cheer for her every step of the way. This is the first time I have been introduced to Philippa Gregory, and I am looking forward reading her other historical fiction novels!
