Anne Rinaldi's Nine Days a Queen

I'm not a big fan of historical fiction, as I always feel that the liberties taken with history get in the way of the facts. This is also aimed at junior high school kids. All of that being said, this was very good. It is a good exploration of the political manipulations and changing tides of fortune in Tudor England. It felt authentic and the narration from Jane Grey from beyond her grave was unusual and not as jarring as I thought it might be.
