I found it grossly fascinating that Henry VIII - such a disgusting, yucky person both physically and mentally - had women pursuing him from every corner of Europe just because he wore a crown. My own personal interest with Henry VIII and the Tudor monarchy peaked tremendously after reading The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory. This novel will change your outlook on this king forever, and is much better than most other fictional accounts of Henry VIII's life. However, if you know anything at all about the history of Henry VIII (and his six wives!), I highly recommend sticking it out. Sitting at a very thick 960 pages, The Autobiography of Henry VIII may seem an overwhelming feat to some readers, especially those skeptical about picking up this novel to begin with. Although this book may seem like a real autobiography at first glance based on the title (of course it's not - how is that even possible?), this novel is actually a fictional firsthand account of the life of Henry VIII, as told by his fool, Will Somers. The Autobiography of Henry VIII is the first novel published by esteemed historical fiction novelist Margaret George. 7/4/2023 0 Comments The pervert by remy boydellOne of the clients we meet had previously had a relationship with a trans woman and the way he loves her and talks to her warmed my heart. Sometimes when I read books I think "wow, I'd love to live in the world this person has created " with The Pervert, Perez has written a book where I think "wow, I already do live in the world this person has created." While it's brutal, there's also kindness and love in the book. Perez is able to capture a shared experience that Millenials have where we just can't seem to swim upriver no matter what or how hard we try. You don't need to be trans or a sex worker or depressed to see yourself in this book. Perez is telling stories that are so different from other mainstream comics, but will also resonate with so, so many people. AUTOSTRADDLE - It's a real story that doesn't try to gussy itself up at all. |
