The Other Boleyn Girl - Philippa Gregory

Okay, yes, I have finally read the book that everyone has been raving about !!! And, surprisingly, it did live up to the hype. It's almost 800 pages, and I read it in a week and a half, which is a pretty quick pace for me.

This is the story of Anne Boleyn, told from the point of view of her sister, Mary, her best friend and biggest rival. Gregory's writing style is very engaging. The details are incorporated in a way that makes the characters, along with their actions and emotions seem so lifelike that by the end you really feel as if it must not be fiction.

I enjoyed this book very much. Tell me if someone else already reviewed this and I missed it.

APPROVED.
