the other Boleyn girl


I have been working for 4 days straight (and that's a lot of for me) and I've come home tired every day....but I've been reading like a mad woman. Scott even got me TiVo and I've yet to use it. I've been under the spell of the other Boleyn girl. It's a fantastic book.

I read the 650 some odd page book in record time and that is a lot to say about a historical fiction novel. I was enchanted with the royal court, the drama, the intrigue, the lust, the deceit, the love. I highly recommend this book....and I am so excited that it's going to be a movie. I hope they capture even half of the wonderful descriptions and plots given by Philippa Gregory. She does a great job of capturing the feeling of the time and I really felt like I was a part of everything. I can't wait to read all her other novels!

We should go see the movie together! I'm so excited to see it...and I didn't even know it was a book first! I'm adding it to my list of Must Reads.
