Great book for discussion!
I give it a B+
Not bad, gives you yet another perspective of King Henry's life. Lady Jane is rarely talked about even though she was the "Nine Days Queen" prior to Mary I and after Edwards Death.
A little too long, The book should have been written shorter. Overall C+
An Excellent book! Even though the plot of the story was boring at times, the lessons learned are priceless. Overall A-
Great read. Learned a lot about Henry's last wife. Overall A-
Nice Book, Good Visual Descriptions Overall = B
You learn a lot about Mary I and Elizabeth I. You get a nice glimpse of Gregory's imagination, because a lot of this was based on imagination rather than facts like the others. Overall A-
Great read. Overall I give it an A !!
You truly feel inspired by this brave Queen's tale. I think it was way dragged out, but it doesn't stop you from loving her. Overall I give it a C-
I actually started my Historical Fiction love affair with this book. You should have some previous knowledge of Henry and anne before understanding Lady Rochford. But, once you get into it, you do! Overall I give it an A
Then this is for you. F
Educational but fun. Overall I give it a B
Very entertaining, read it in two days! Overall A for fun!
Why Oprah? WHY? F- Very boring, I had to stop mid way couldnt take it anymore..
I loved the jealoudy that erode from the main characters. And I loved it when she slapped the little girl. Overall I give it a B
yada yada yada, the book was predictable and lacked substance! Overall I give it a D+

Cute book, great for ladies. Not Guys. Overall a B-
Not bad, not one of Koontz's best. Overall I give it a C
I totally loved this book. It was something about the magic and realism mixed together so naturally. This is by far one of my favorite book. A ++++
A Typical Love story, mixed with mystery and taunting flirtations. Good Book. C+
I really enjoyed this book, because you rarely hear about the one Queen of King Henry's that bore him an heir. Overall I give it a B
Heart-warming, intense, sad, exciting all rolled up into one. A +
This is one of my favorite books. It made me cry. A++++
four love stories. Overall I give it a C+
I unfortunely really tried to get into this book but it was just too boring F
IT's interesting to see contrast in cultures. But I think for those who are not Iranian it may be a bit boring. C+
It's more like a bad dream than a book or story. I didn't like it at all.
Fun Read. Lots going on but it flows well enough to understand. Comedic. b+
The narrative is written well enough that women can relate. The thoughts are real and well worded. C+ AND its funny!
Great book for a long plane ride. Overall b+
Everyone, no matter sign, race, religion, belief should read this book. A++
I pick up this book once a month and re-read through it's principals. And I learn something new each time. A+
Good Guide. Lacks actual instruction, and dwells more on WHY we need to rid our fears, rather than HOW TO actually rid our fears. C-
a novel through generations. A Must read. A
Objective was good. Poorly Written.
Keep you interested. Great movie as well. OVerall: B
Just as Brown pulls it off in the Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons, and Digital Fortress, yet another suspensful novel. Overall = B
All three were beautiful and delightful. B +
Very predictable. I'd say a bit cheezy. I am normally a big fan of N.Roberts, but this isn't one of her better works. D+
Amazing Story! Keep the reader intrigued and curious about the outcome! A+++
Book is mainly conversations and witty remarks. Not bad but a bit too long for it's content.
Cute and Chaotic! Not bad for when you want a light read that teaches you nothing!!
Typical Jackie Collins book. Always a fun and joy. SCANDAL! B
I usually do my best to not put down a book. But this...I had to stop. It didn't seem to get any better. It was WAY confusing!
Takes you to the time period. Good for the imagination and sells love to your soul.
Very interesting take on the story of Binah, highly recommended!
Simple Read. Not too thrilling. Confusing at times. Good scenic descriptions though.
Burdett has a unique style of story-telling. He really entices the reader and takes them into the heart of Bangkok. Great for the imagination. Interesting take of government, politics, people and prostitution. B-
Josephine Bonaparte becomes a fascinating character in history once she entices the interest of Napoleon. Prior to that, there's just politics, war, moving etc. This is the first in the series of Gulland's books. Not the most interested at that. D
Fascinating. Hard to follow, but a must Read for sure. Makes you think, second guess and sulk. Moments of sanity and insanity. Highly recommended. Just, get through the boring chapters and keep going, it's still worth it in the end. A-
The three points of view Gregory choose were melodramatic. The character, Lord of Shrewsberry, couldn't possibly have been any duller. Bess of Hardwick could have been more firey.
And, although this book was written for people to admire and understand Queen Mary of Scotts, I found her appaling. I thought her a very selfish, arrogant, impatient queen.
Not bad. Boring at times. but you learned a lot more about who she was.
Had a modern way of making you feel one with the past. A true love story, no bullshit, just realism at it's best :) B+
David Ball is an amazing writer. Very detailed, graphic and touching. They should make a movie out of this novel.
