A review by sweetpavement
Tarnish by Katherine Longshore
5.0
I quite enjoyed this book. The tale of Anne Boleyn, but a period in her life that is rarely spoken of, and ought to be written about more, her theorized romance with Thomas Wyatt.
I loved that this book was a romance that was grounded in historical detail without feeling stuffy or ridiculous. I also quite liked that it gave me a window on the period I've never really considered before. It was sweet, effervescent, and cleverly written...and the use of Wyatt's poetry to emphasize it all was wonderful.
