New York Times Bestseller * Publishers Weekly Best Young Adult Book of the Year * Bustle Best Young Adult Book of the Year * YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults 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. And don't miss the authors' next fun read, My Plain Jane!

Rezension von Natália Oliveira<blockquote><b><i>"For everyone who knows there was enough room for Leonardo DiCaprio on that door. And for England. We’re really sorry for what we’re about to do to your history.”</i></b></blockquote> This was one of the best books I've read this year so far and quickly became one of my favorites. I'm fascinated by European history, especially England's, and this hilarious twist on this period was the breath of fresh air I needed to get out of a reading slump. It's a book about adventure, backstabbing, political schemes, romance and magic, with compelling and likable characters. The romance was cute and it's in that style I like - they both at first dislike each other, but then they start a reluctant companionship and then fall in love. I like how Jane and G became partners and how respectful they are of each other. Edward is a little bit of a tool at first, but he develops a lot during the novel and I like how he ends up appreciating the women in his life and how they are as much his equal as any man. AND GRACIE IS BADASS, I LOVE HER. One of the things that made this book as funny as it was were the authors' comments during the book, which were hilarious. Actually, the entire book had these scenes that made me laugh out loud a lot. I just loved everything about it and I can't wait to read the next book in this series.
Rezension von renI know I've said this before but I'm going to say it again: <b>I DEFINITELY NEED MORE BOOKS LIKE THIS IN MY LIFE.</b> <i>My Lady Jane</i> is humorous, entertaining, and filled with feels all at the same time. Definitely a great book when your spirits are in need of some sort of lifting. A more decent and full review to come!
