This not my favorite portrayal of Henry the 8th and his 5th wife, Katherine Howard. I didn't like the narrator and how she laid out the story. Definitely not on the same level of Phillipa Gregory, Carolly Erickson, or Alison Weir. I almost wonder if the novel was meant to be for young adults? If you're used to the descriptions of the Tudor Era or in-depth characters, this book will not be appealing to you at all. I actually checked it out twice. Once because after reading a few chapters I thought it was utter nonsense. The second time was because I wanted to give the book a second chance and finish it from cover to cover....and I was still left with the same feeling as the first time I checked it out from the library.
