Katharine, the Virgin Widow: A Novel Audiobook

" Katherine of Aragon (daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain) around the time when she was married to Arthur Prince of Wales (son of Henry VII). "

" As a stand alone book it would have been interesting and that is why I gave it three stars. It is however not a stand alone book but one in a series and as that it is dull since it repeats a lot already said in part 1. Can't say I look forward to reading part 3 as I am afraid the same will occur. "

" This book wasn't bad, but being written in the 1960's just made it too boring for me. Not sure I would read the rest of them. "

" Very interesting. Easy historical read. Recommended for anyone who wants to learn more about the Tudors, but cannot stand boring fiction. "

" another fantastic jean plaidy novel "

" Certainly not as exciting as Phillippa Gregory's version, but it did have a good deal more detail about Katherine's family and the people who surrounded her as she waited in poverty to see what would become of her after her husband, Arthur died. "

" Kind of boring, with lots of repetition of ideas. "

" Just finished it...2 days before it was due! I think that is a record for me...it was only 200 pages, but still a record! This is about Henry VIII's first wife, Katherine, before she became his wife. It also talks of him when he was a child and his brother, who Katherine was married to before Henry. "

" bit boring compared to some of her others and didn't really like any of the characters "

" I think I've just read too many Tudor stories. This was readable, but didn't capture my attention. "

" This is a good book. Its fiction based on fact. I found it hard to get into but great when I did "

" Really like this book. Easy and quick to read, it's great to read the story of Henry VIII's first wife from her point of view and read more about the goings on in Spain at that time and her sister Juana. "

" Not quite as fun as Philipa Gregory but not too dry either. Poor Catherine. "

" I listened to the audio book version during my commute this week - Anne Flosnik did an excellent job reading. "
