Waiting on Wednesday: Tarnish by Katherine Longshore


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly Meme hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine. It is an opportunity for us to show books we can't wait to get our hands on.

This week, my pick is:


Tarnish by Katherine Longshore
The Royal Circle #2
Release Date: June 18th, 2013
Publisher: Viking Juvenile

Anne Boleyn is the odd girl out. Newly arrived to the court of King Henry VIII, everything about her seems wrong, from her clothes to her manners to her witty but sharp tongue. So when the dashing poet Thomas Wyatt offers to coach her on how to shine at court—and to convince the whole court they’re lovers—she accepts. Before long, Anne’s popularity has soared, and even the charismatic and irresistible king takes notice. More than popularity, Anne wants a voice—but she also wants love. What began as a game becomes high stakes as Anne finds herself forced to make an impossible choice between her heart’s desire and the chance to make history.

I absolutely loved Gilt, and I'm really excited to see her new novel, especially since it's about Anne Boleyn. King Henry VIII is one of the English King I find the most interesting.

    I find King Henry VIII fascinating as well and I was so intrigued with Anne Boleyn's story. I've only read one version by Phillipa Gregory, but it was great. awesome pick! I'll definitely keep my eye out for this one. :)

    I can't always handle reading these since the endings are all sad. Thanks for visiting mine for Going Vintage and The Avery Shaw Experiment.
