This my first venture into anything about the Tudors. I had a difficult time reading it and will tell you why. I think that the aim of this book is to set the record straight on Mary Boleyn. The author, Alison Weir is an extremely meticulous researcher. This is evidenced by the text of the book, bibliography and Notes and References. She, states that she researched the original sources as much as possible. Each fact about her family and Mary, herself was gone through with a fine tooth comb. Because I was background poor, I had not read the other books about Mary Boleyn prior to this book, it felt tedious and like there were too many details. Each fact was carefully researched and arguments for and against it being true were covered one by one. That left me, feeling like I was making no progress in learning about her life and also wishing that I had several books about Mary Boleyn before this one. Because each side of pro and con of a statement was covered in such great detail I felt like I was reading a continuous debate. That made me weary of the book. However I can understand someone who has read several books about Mary prior staying up all night discovering which things were true and which were not. Mary Boleyn, The Mistress of the Kings, begins with the background of the Boleyn family. Instead of inheriting their place in society, they had to earn it through marriages to elevate the family, supporting the right side during the War of Roses and trade. There were three chapters before Mary Boleyn is actually discussed. The author states and backs up her statement that a lot said about Mary was untrue. Since King Henry VIII was so discreet, we really don't know much about the affair between the King and Mary Boleyn. She was a married woman of some social height, she had nothing to gain from it. I did learn some about Mary Boleyn but the most prominent truth is that there is quite a bit that simply not true. There were rumors during the days and some historical fiction writers picked up on them, also there have been movies that perpetuated the untruths. My recommendation is to read several books concerning Mary Boleyn and then read this book. Do not read it as a "starter". I received this book as a part of the Amazon Vine Program but that in no way influenced my review.

this is an alright book. but don't read it looking for the same humor, wit, intelligence, depth or character building as gone with the wind. it's hard to go from a masterpiece of epic proportions to a follow up novel, so let's not compare them. lets just say, if you want to read one person's interpretation of what could have happened, go for it, it is not a deep read. as far as actual writing and storytelling goes, the ending is severely lacking. it seems as if ripley was under a time crunch and just needed to end it, regardless of the loose ends that needed to be tied up or the lack of character consistencies displayed.

Told in alternating voices this is the story of a 13-year-old who gets in trouble with the law. Because his father was a policeman (killed in the line of duty) a judge and cop decide to try and mentor him. The story was straightforward and cleanly written, but I wanted more description. I never felt like I really got much more than a glimpse of the characters. Kudos though to WDM for mentoring a young writer through this process; I'll look forward to more from him in the future. A good Hi-Lo choice especially for struggling boys.

One of the best books I have read in awhile. Just a great story. But lots of tears at the end!

I started reading this series when I was in the fourth or fifth grade and I loved it. I also loved to stare at the cover art on all of the books.

Oh. My... This story rocked my soul as very few books have ever come close to doing. It is right up there among the very greatest masterpieces of literature that I have ever read. The heartrending but so very simple content drives this book invisibly with a power that is simply unsurpassed (and perhaps unmatched) by any other author. The Birds' Christmas Carol belongs on the shelf with the greatest stories ever imagined for younger readers. It is an inspiration unlike any other.
