Me on Waiting on Wednesday (253)

Waiting on Wednesday is a bunch of weekly fun hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. :)

Title: My Lady Jane
Authors: Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, & Jodi Meadows
Release Date: June 7, 2016
Publisher: HarperTeen (HarperCollins imprint)

From Goodreads:

For fans of The Princess Bride comes the comical, fantastical, romantical, (not) entirely true story of Lady Jane Grey.

Lady Jane Grey, sixteen, is about to be married to a total stranger—and caught up in an insidious plot to rob her cousin, King Edward, of his throne. But that’s the least of Jane’s problems. She’s about to become Queen of England. Like that could go wrong.

This sounds intriguing. I rather like British history, even though there's a lot of present day paranormal and futuristic dystopian that might say otherwise, and so I'm curious as to how the authors have tweaked the story of Lady Jade Grey. Apart from her horrible death at the age of 16 or 17.

  2. I'm actually not familiar with British history, but I'm still definitely picking this up since it's written by three prominent names in the YA community. And I really do want to learn more about British history, even if this book will present a "different" version of it. Awesome pick, Lindsay!
