Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 2165 comments What book about the Tudors or Tudor England would you like to have as our Group Read in January 2020?

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.

Maddie (theytookthecrown) | 1 comments Could I nominate Thomas More by Richard Marius? I read it recently and it was very, very eye opening as to what More was really like.

Natalie (creativecountry0407gmailcom) | 163 comments I will nominate To Hold the Crown (Tudor Saga #1) by Jean Plaidy and Catherine of Aragon An Intimate Life of Henry VIII's True Wife by Amy Licence again.


message 4: by William (new)

William Whalen | 68 comments I will nominate Henry VII (English Monarchs Series) by S.B. Chrimes by S.B. Chrimes and The Pilgrimage of Grace The Rebellion That Shook Henry VIII's Throne by Geoffrey Moorhouse by Geoffrey Moorhouse.


Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 2165 comments Thomas Moore, A Biography, Maddie? Sure - we haven't read it, and copies look generally available.

Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 2165 comments If anyone has a nomination to make, now is a good time to do so; I'll probably be opening the poll later today.


Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 2165 comments OK, I will nominate Murder by Misrule by Anna Castle, and Tudors: The History of England from Henry VIII to Elizabeth I by Peter Ackroyd.

And with that I close nominations.
