I read The Other Boleyn Girl and then The Boleyn Inheritance by Phillipa Gregory. These are prequels to The Queen's Fool. I may or may not get The Virgin's Lover to round out that series, but I like the historical fiction. All the books have sent me to wikipedia to look up facts and dates, because I want to know what is true and what is fiction.
I am now reading Belong to Me by Marisa de los Santos. It is really good. You know the cover, 4 pairs of rubber boots on a hardwood floor against a soft green wall. I highly recommend, even though I suspect I will cry at least once before the end of the book. It is a very thoughtful look at some real people who might appear to be superficial or unreal to begin with, but once you get underneath they are so much more.
