The Other Boleyn Girl

The Other Boleyn Girl
The Tudor Court
Philippa Gregory

From Amazon.com:

When Mary Boleyn comes to court as an innocent girl of fourteen, she catches the eye of the handsome and charming Henry VIII. Dazzled by the king, Mary falls in love with both her golden prince and her growing role as unofficial queen. However, she soon realizes just how much she is a pawn in her family’s ambitious plots as the king’s interest begins to wane, and soon she is forced to step aside for her best friend and rival: her sister, Anne. With her own destiny suddenly unknown, Mary realizes that she must defy her family and take fate into her own hands.

With more than one million copies in print and adapted for the big screen, The Other Boleyn Girl is a riveting historical drama. It brings to light a woman of extraordinary determination and desire who lived at the heart of the most exciting and glamorous court in Europe, and survived a treacherous political landscape by following her heart.

Foxy’s Review:

Well, this bites! I got a digital copy from my library and after 6 hours of listening to the audio it just ended.

Well, I guess, I should have paid better attention to what I check out from the library. Apparently, the library only has the abridged version. SIGH!!!

Even though I didn’t get the full version of this book I was not feeling it. I felt like something was missing… what was missing? I’m not sure but I needed more.

I have not seen the movie adaption of this book but I’m interested in watching it. Guess, I’ll need to check if it’s on Netflix.
