I got this book from a friend of mine. She said it’s really good, but a little racy. I think that’s a very good description. I thought I pretty much knew the story of Anne Boleyn, but this story takes you behind the scenes of how she became queen…who she stepped on on her way up the “royal ladder” and what extremes she might have gone through to give the king a son.

I just watched the movie this last weekend. It gives you the whole behind the scenes politics involved.
