The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory — 661 pages

A wonderful piece of historical fiction. I was unaware that Anne Boleyn had a sister who was very involved with the British Tudor court. Anne was the first wife of Henry VIII who was beheaded. That was about all I knew. This engaging novel laid out the time period, main characters, and political machinations during this era. Mary and Anne had a brother, George, who was also very involved with the court and its escapades. I found this an engrossing novel and look forward to reading more of her work.
