How To Use This Book List

Many of the books here are written for young adults. However, some are definitely adult books. I don't always specify in my comments; however if you are interested in a book, find it at the library. If it's in Juvenile Fiction or Young Adult Fiction, it's usually safe for kids 12-15 (be sure to preview just in case). If the book is found elsewhere, you can always ask a librarian for their input.
Personally, a few swear words don't do much for me, so I don't usually remember they are in there. Other types of content, however, are usually commented on.
Enjoy!!

p.s. Please leave a "care-to-share" (aka, comment) anytime you like.

Three Maids for a Crown

by Ella March Chase

I must be on a little kick of royalty. After reading Chase's The Virgin Queen's Daughter I decided I had to read the "prequel" of sorts. This book is the story of the Grey Sisters: Jane, Katherine, and Mary. I had heard these names here and there, but new nothing about them. This book is fiction, but based on historical events and facts of the era. The sisters are cousin to Queen Mary (Bloody Mary) Tudor. The tale gives event points of view from all three sisters throughout the book. I thoroughly enjoyed it and even found the ending to be different from what I had anticipated. Good Read!!

***
p.s. I might suggest reading this one BEFORE The Virgin Queen's Daughter just for a better sense of timeline and sequence.
