I've read it 3 times (and possibly will read it again another 3 times at least). Of course, I've read also Bring Up the Bodies. But it's the 3rd time I start to read The Mirror and the Light. On the previous two occasions I just failed to finish it. It's not the book's fault. I might be a bit (a bit too much) reluctant, because knowing the end of the story from history, I just don't want to be too involved emotionally.

No other Hilary Mantel novels appeal to me. Thoughts? Is there a particular novel of hers you’d recommend?
