My Lady Jane (The Lady Janies)

Description

This comical, fantastical, romantical, New York Times bestselling, (not) entirely true story of Lady Jane Grey is "an uproarious historical fantasy that's not to be missed" (Publishers Weekly, starred review).

In My Lady Jane, coauthors Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows have created a one-of-a-kind YA fantasy in the tradition of The Princess Bride, featuring a reluctant king, an even more reluctant queen, a noble steed, and only a passing resemblance to actual history--because sometimes history needs a little help.

At sixteen, Lady Jane Grey is about to be married off to a stranger and caught up in a conspiracy to rob her cousin, King Edward, of his throne. But those trifling problems aren't for Jane to worry about. Jane gets to be Queen of England.

Like that could go wrong.

I will be honest. I was a little worried about this book being corny. It was not. I absolutely adored this book. I laughed and laughed and laughed even more. The bantering between the characters was fun and comical while at times being sincere. A few parts were predictable but that did not take away from the story at all. The narrators are fantastic. Their transformation of the characters fits well. If you are looking for a fun book with a good plot, I recommend this book over and over again.
