The Masque of the Black Tulip: A Novel32 reviews
Lauren Willig

Dutton Adult, 2005

Romance, mystery, action, comedy, history - what more could a girl want?

+ She does it again!!

The Masque of the Black Tulip (and the first book in the series - The Secret History of the Pink Carnation) are both exactly the type of book I enjoy reading - something with romance, comedy, action and mystery. Nothing too heavy, mushy or dramatic. The historical setting in these books makes ...

Katherine is a multi-read through the years

+ Interesting but sometimes annoying
+ one of the first, and still one of the best!

Read it first in high school English (1968) and still re-read it. Excellent Historical Fiction which will probably snag you on Anya Seton's writing. I recommend The Winthrop Woman as well. And Theodesia.

Best Book I've read in a LONG time

+ Loved it!

I absolutely loved this book. I abandoned all of my responsibilities for two days so that I could read The Time Traveler's wife without stopping. I have now recommended it to everyone I know. It's a little confusing in the beginning, but a good confusing, because the author makes you want to ...

Wonderful first novel, a mix of tragic romance and history

+ Original Subject
+ B+

I enjoyed THE ILLUMINATOR and I will definitely pick up the author's second book. It's an historical novel told mostly (but not entirely) from a woman's viewpoint. There's romance (not explicit) and familial relationships as well. The setting involves the late 1300s when John of Gaunt ruled for ...
