Can't wait to read the sequel she's working on.<br /><br />And I'm with Meg, don't forget about Philippa Gregory, who wrote The Other Boleyn Girl, plus an engrossing if unlikely story about Catherine of Aragon.elizabethdeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15530010568818566353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6383797470400413055.post-24819408033934518572011-02-09T14:14:23.952-06:002011-02-09T14:14:23.952-06:00Wowza, you do listen fast!

The audio version of Philippa Gregory's The Boleyn Inheritance can't be beat--I love Davina Porter, and she narrates about 1/3 of the book, taking the voice of Jane Boleyn, George's sister. Really well done.<br /><br />If you're looking for a break from the historical, though, I'd also recommend The Widower's Tale by Julia Glass. Beautifully read, and such a well-told story.<br /><br />Happy listening (and sewing!!).Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15685176674707591308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6383797470400413055.post-5623853362381336122011-02-09T13:47:59.367-06:002011-02-09T13:47:59.367-06:00Anything by Margaret George is well worth reading....Anything by Margaret George is well worth reading.
