“The Rose Without a Thorn”, by Jean Plaidy or “The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn”, by Robin Maxwell :)
I nominate THE LOCKSMITH'S DAUGHTER by Karen Brooks.
I nominate : " Wolsey. The life of King Henry VIII's Cardinal by John Matusiak and " Catherine of Aragon: Henry's Spanish Queen by Giles Tremlett
Seconding: totally not necessary.These are some great suggestions.
Some that I have on my shelf are The Queen's Captive and The Tudors: The Complete Story of England's Most Notorious Dynasty
The Barbara Kyle - is that a real series, or just "in name only"?

If anyone has a nomination they'd like to make, now would be a good time, as I'll probably be starting the poll later today.
Alright, I will nominate How to Behave Badly in Renaissance Britain by Ruth Goodman and The Last Armada: Queen Elizabeth, Juan del Águila, and Hugh O'Neill: The Story of the 100-Day Spanish Invasion by Des Ekin.And with that I will close nominations, and go open the poll.
The poll is on the Home page of the group, on the top of the group's Polls section, or here: https://www.goodreads.com/poll/show/1... .
If the poll closed now (it does not, though time is getting short), the winner would be The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn, by a small margin (2 votes) over How to Behave Badly in Renaissance Britain.
The winner was indeed The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn. We'll be discussing it here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/... .

If it's in a series, can it be easily read as a stand-alone? If not, you might want to nominate the first book in the series, or the most recent book in it the group has not read together.
Can't remember what we've already read as a group? (Sometimes I can't, either.) There's a "group-reads" shelf on the group's Bookshelf.
Two nominations to a person, please.
