My Lady Jane... A Sneak Peek
Welcome to Sneak Peek Saturday on Reading List!
Current book:
My Lady Jane
Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, & Jodi Meadows
Goodreads Summary:
The comical, fantastical, romantical, (not) entirely true story of Lady Jane Grey. In My Lady Jane, coauthors Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows have created a one-of-a-kind fantasy in the tradition of The Princess Bride, featuring a reluctant king, an even more reluctant queen, a noble steed, and only a passing resemblance to actual history—because sometimes history needs a little help.
At sixteen, Lady Jane Grey is about to be married off to a stranger and caught up in a conspiracy to rob her cousin, King Edward, of his throne. But those trifling problems aren’t for Jane to worry about. Jane is about to become the Queen of England.

Sneak Peek:
"She clutched her books to her stomach and considered prayer. Would praying for a decent-size nose nose be considered sacrilege?" p 33
Initial Thoughts
I am surprisingly very into this story, it is just so funny. The jokes are on every page, and for that I am grateful. This is a book like no other, and will bring a smile to your face. However, I'm going slower than I thought I would so we will see how I feel once I reach the end...
