The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory - beartifully written sequel to The Other Boleyn Girl

Hey compski! Thanks for stopping by! I did like The Boleyn Inheritance quite a bit actually. One of the things I particularly enjoyed was that the chapters were much shorter than the other books in the series. This was handy since it was my lunch time reading. I also liked getting 3 ...

99: Interesting. I've been working my way through the series as well and recently finished The Boleyn Inheritance which was my favorite so far. I really enjoyed the short chapter (partly because it was my lunch reading, so I was always able to finish a chapter) and getting the different ...

Hi Bib! You have some good books here. It looks like you read more than three a year :) How did The Boleyn Inheritance turn out. Did you like it?

I finished The Boleyn Inheritance last night and will get started on The Queen's Fool on Monday. Today I'm concentrating on The Book Thief. I doubt I'll finish it, as Holly is having a BBQ, but I'm going to give it my best shot! ETA: Oh yeah, and I started Deathly Hallows yesterday.... ...

... I've read all of those. was very disappointed by The Constant Princess. Loved(!) tOBG, Q'sF and V'sL, enjoyed The Boleyn Inheritance, but not as much. edited to fix fact that it previously made no sense. Thanks bib!

Yes, I'm really loving The Boleyn Inheritance. I recommend giving it a shot!

18: So The Boleyn Inheritance is good so far? I read The Other Boleyn Girl and absolutely loved it, but I was lukewarm on all the other Philippa Gregory books I have read: The Queen's Fool, The Constant Princess, and The Virgin's Lover.

... miss. I like The Other Boleyn Girl pretty well, was bored by The Constant Princess and am having a tough time putting The Boleyn Inheritance down.

... I started it yesterday, but was too sick to concentrate on reading, so I'll work on it this weekend. I've also started The Boleyn Inheritance for my lunch reading. Still working on Dracula as well, since I haven't been online much in the last week!

#33 The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory - So-so, didn't really like it all that much. I thought her previous Tudor books were much better. I barely liked a single character in this one! Review

#33 The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory - So-so, didn't really like it all that much. I thought her previous Tudor books were much better. I barely liked a single character in this one! Review

Still working on my Tudor books and just finished The Boleyn Inheritance - what a disappointment! I barely liked it. I could not get into the characters, hated the choppiness of the chapters and the changing viewpoints of the three women, and I found it repulsive imagining big fat gross Henry ...

I just finished The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory and was disappointed with it, and now I am starting A Highlander for Christmas by Sandy Blair. I've been looking forward to reading this, since I really like this author!

I just finished The Boleyn Inheritence, I found it a bit disappointing, not nearly as good as her other Tudor novels. I didn't hate it, but I don't think I liked a single character in this book!

I'm in 1540, Tudor England, the court of Henry VIII in The Boleyn Inheritence.

I decided to put off reading Wolves of the Calla for now and am starting The Boleyn Inheritence (I have The Tudors on my mind too much after watching the 2nd to last episode of the season today On Demand).

17. The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory - (read from 5/4-5/11) This was the second book I have read by Gregory. I absolutely loved The Other Boleyn Girl, so I was excited to read this book. This book focuses on Jane Boleyn, the wife of George Boleyn (Anne Boleyn's brother); Anne of Cleves ...

... because it didn't appeal to me and now that I am reading it I love it and am soooo glad I gave it a go. #1: Greyhead: The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory has the story of two more of his wives, one of which was a cousin of Anne Boleyn hence the title.

... sure that some Moorish customs and attitudes percolated into the Spanish court, but not to that extent. I think I liked The Boleyn Inheritance best too of the ones I've read. I enjoyed The Last Boleyn Girl and there weren't any errors that set me off, and I'm moderately knowledgeable about ...

... true historic fact, which is why it is perfectly categorized as fiction. I loved TOBG, and TCP was only alright. I bought The Boleyn Inheritance and plan on getting to it after I've finished a few others on my list. As an avid fan of Showtime's Tudor series, I feel the want to chime in a ...

... VIII; I also have Antonia Fraser's The wives of Henry VIII to tackle and may hunt down some others. I plan to read The Boleyn Inheritance at some point, and maybe The Constant Princess. Hopefully I will enjoy those as much as TOBG.

... Princess is supposed to be first. If by publication order, I'm not sure what that order would be, but I do know The Boleyn Inheritance was not the first of those books to be published. Also, I thought there was another book in the series already released?

... almost the end of March. I am currently reading The Mortician's Daughter by Elizabeth Bloom and will either read The Boleyn Inheritance or some Hemingway or F. Scott Fitzgerald next as I seem to be leaning towards those classics right now. Still staying with Pride and Prejudi ...

23. The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory 514 pages ****1/2 I think I may have a mini obsession. 23/50 (46%) 8,128/ 16,000 (50.8%) If I can keep up this pace, I should be done with my 50 by June. Success :) (I shouldn't jinx this!)

I finished The Boleyn Inheritance and started Clown Girl last night. I am stuck at the beginning of Volume 3 in War and Peace and can't seem to get back into it.

36. The Boleyn Inheritance I liked this book, but not as much as The Other Boleyn Girl or The Queen's Fool. I don't really know what to read next. I started Clown Girl but can't decide if I should keep reading it or start something else instead. And of course there is still War and Peac ...

... Philippa Gregory's books about the women of Henry VIII's court: The Constant Princess, The Other Boleyn Girl, and The Boleyn Inheritance. What others do people recommend??

I liked The Boleyn Inheritance best of all of Gregory's Tudor novels. Her historical inaccuracies drive me nuts (worst of all was The Constant Princess). This one bothered me less because relatively little is known about the three women featured in the novel: Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard, ...

Would like to hear more about Late Nights on Air! Also, what did you think of The Boleyn Inheritance? I saw The Other Boleyn Girl, movie version, last week. Don't feel in any rush to read the book now. There always seems to be some criticism of Gregory's accuracy.

For Davina Porter fans, I came across the audiobook version of The Boleyn Inheritance at the library a couple of weeks ago. Porter is one of the narrators, who are all fabulous. I'm not finished with the book yet, but it's very good so far.

Good morning, I'm new to the group this year, and very excited to be here. And now, first book of the year... 1. The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory. Starting off nice and easy. While this was not one of my favorites by Gregory, I did enjoy it. I'm always a little skeptical ...

I finished The Boleyn Inheritance and am now reading Barack Obama's Dreams from my Father. The results of the Iowa Caucus have nothing to do with this; I picked up this book at a library sale a few months ago. It's very well-written -- he's just as articulate a writer as an orator, and to ...

All of Philippa Gregory's Tudor books are excellent... I would recommend starting with The Other Boleyn Girl and then The Boleyn Inheritance. My other favorites of hers were The Constant Princess and The Queen's Fool ... I didn't care much for The Virgin's Lover though. Another ...

... I've been eagerly anticipating. Much to my delight, I found the library was having a book sale, $2/bag, and I bagged: The Boleyn Inheritance, Girl, Interrupted, The Stories of Eva Luna, Dreams from my Father, and Breath, Eyes, Memory. And a Dick Francis mystery for my husband. ...

Finally, I have read the first book that I actually really enjoyed since finishing Harry Potter - The Boleyn Inheritance, the latest by Philippa Gregory. Gregory does such an excellent job bringing Tudor England to life and, having read both The Constant Princess and The Other Boleyn Gir ...

I will definitely have to read The Boleyn Inheritance! Thanks for the recommendation, Lady Pamina, which gains credibility from your astute comments about the other novels.

I just finished The Boleyn Inheritance, and it was intense. I was literally scared out my wits. Even though I what would happen to Anne and Catherine--I was still in suspense and wondering if they would be executed or saved. Henry was a crazed and horrifying monster. My heart was pounding with ...

The book I'm working on now, The Boleyn Inheritance is a multi-POV book. That's what made me ask the question. I actually like that the story is intertwined thru each character.

... has been sitting on my shelf for several years now, because of negative feedback from other readers. I hope you enjoy The Boleyn Inheritance as much as I did. If you haven't read it yet, also thought The Queen's Fool was good.

# 72 Cariola I'm so glad to hear some good feedback about The Boleyn Inheritance ! I'm about 80% thru The Constant Princess, which was good, but I just didn't get the same passion about that one as I did The other Boleyn Girl. I'm looking forward to digging into another good work!

>>#67 The Boleyn Inheritance is my favorite P. Gregory novel; I've read all the Tudor-era ones. I enjoyed the three distinct narrators and think she did a good job of creating separate voice for each of them. Enjoy!

I just purchased The Boleyn Inheritance by Philippa Gregory today and can't wait to start it. I really enjoyed The Other Boleyn Girl, and I hope this one is just as good.

... is accurate enough to be really plausible to a historian of the period. I'll have to put both The Traitor's Wife and The Boleyn Inheritance on my to-be-read list. The latter is one of Gregory's most recent, so probably benefits from the cumulative research she's done for her other novels.

... her for her mistress. But it's been years since I've read it. On the other hand, I didn't find any jarring inaccuracies in The Boleyn Inheritance, a book I enjoyed thoroughly. I agree with those who have listed Sharon Penman, Jude Morgan, and Margaret George. Jean Plaidy's ...

... so-so. But The Constant Princess made up for it. It focuses more on Catherine's early life. There is a new book called The Boleyn Inheritance but I haven't read that one yet.

I'm very much enjoying The Boleyn Inheritance. I am a fan of Gregory's tudor court series, however "bodice ripping" others may find them. I read to visit other worlds, and I find she creates very vivid worlds for me to visit!
