Queen's Gambit: A Novel of Katherine Parr by Elizabeth Fremantle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I won a copy of this novel through the Goodreads First Reads giveaways.
I enjoyed this lush account of Henry VIII's last wife, Katherine Parr. Life in Katherine's world was vividly described and the characters were well-developed. The plot kept moving, never leaving me feeling like I was moving through a history text.
Fans of Philippa Gregory would feel right at home with this novel and I would happily read more from Fremantle.
*Edited to add that I passed it on to a family member who also really enjoyed it, so this is a great book to add to your TBR pile!
