I just finished reading this book. It is a religious (Christian Fiction) take on Anne Boleyn's life, paralleled with a woman named Rose, and a dying woman forced to write their story.
I did not love the book, but did not hate it either. I found it different. I've never read Christian Fiction before, but I did appreciate the use of the reformation to tell Anne's story. It is one of the few books I read where Anne is not the scheming seductress, but rather a deeply devout young woman pursude by Henry.
There are many glaring innacuracies in the book. I am not sure if the author was totally unaware of them, or she did it for time contraints and dramatisation.
Has anyone here read this book? If so, I'd love to know your thoughts?
I recommend reading this if you can borrow from a library or a friend, of find it cheap. It is not for everyone.
