Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 2178 comments What book about the Tudors or Tudor England would you like to read in 2016?

Two nominations to a person, please.

(Can't remember what we've already read together? There's a shelf for that at the group bookshelf - "group-reads.")

Gabriele  Sovers | 1 comments Couple years ago I started reading the Tudor books, one after the other before I kept track of them online. I loved reading into the history of the history of the different queens and kings .

Marie Z Johansen (mzjohansen) | 52 comments All of these are good suggestions" ! I would be happy with many.

How about adding:

Wendy Dunn (wendyjdunn) | 16 comments Owen - Book One of the Tudor Trilogy does sound rather good.

Smile - and thanks to Tony's post, I humbly nominate my most recent novel: The Light in the Labyrinth https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1....

The ebook selling for only $2.50 (US) at the moment , but very soon the price goes up again.

Happy New Year to all!

Wendy

Jo March | 22 comments Alison Weir's latest sounds intriguing: The Lost Tudor Princess The Life of Lady Margaret Douglas by Alison Weir

I've been wanting to read this for awhile now : Elizabeth's Women Friends, Rivals, and Foes Who Shaped the Virgin Queen by Tracy Borman


Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 2178 comments I think I'll nominate a couple myself - Legacy by Susan Kay, and Between Two Queens, by Kate Emerson.

And that looks like a good variety of nominations, so I think I'll close them, and open a poll.
