I think what makes THE SECRETS OF THE TUDOR COURT so interesting to me was the good writing, the vibrancy of the characters, and also learning a lot more about Mary Howard and the Duke of Richmond (Henry's illegitimate son with Elizabeth Blount). I really felt like this one was different. There have been other Tudor books I've read and set aside not to pick up again, but this one I tore through.Eliza Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209596240914705136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861175623849452396.post-59146695091987847202010-05-02T05:29:02.099-04:002010-05-02T05:29:02.099-04:00No..I left half of the last chapter of the second ...No..I left half of the last chapter of the second book I read.

Her research of the Tudor's, and life around the Court, on the whole is good, but the secrets in and out of the bedroom are pretty well broadcast, even if they are woven into an historically based fiction.<br /><br />The Tudors were an interesting lot and that is why so many writers delve into their life and times.<br /><br />The Hypocrisy of the Victorians is less exciting a prospect at first glance. More could be made of it.ZACLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07289333819869440699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861175623849452396.post-11045919109001735092010-04-29T18:59:26.910-04:002010-04-29T18:59:26.910-04:00You are the second person I know who absolutely lo...You are the second person I know who absolutely loved this book - I really can't wait to read it.
