Title: Characters were so alive, I thought I was a part of it all!
Review: I have always been a big fan of English history so I immediately saw the movie based upon the book. Always wanting to find out more I bought the book myself and from the first page I was hypnotized. The characters are so vividly brought alive that I felt their fear, joy, love, and pain. I grieved with Mary and felt her sorrow for the death of her brother and sister regardless of the acts they did to get to the "chopping block". I am pleased to read the book from Mary's point of view; despite her being the "loser" you can't help but to cheer for her every step of the way. This is the first time I have been introduced to Philippa Gregory, and I am looking forward reading her other historical fiction novels!
