Read It Before You See It! - The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory

This February a movie based on Philippa Gregory's book The Other Boleyn Girl will be coming to theaters. It's the story of Mary Boleyn, Anne's sister, who was the lover of Henry VIII before Henry married Anne. Many of you have already read this book, not to mention the many other historical novels by Philippa Gregory, but for those of you who haven't - now is the time to get the book so you'll be ready when the movie comes out.

This isn't the first movie that will be based on Gregory's book. In 2003 a made for TV movie was released in the UK, but, according to users of the Internet Movie Database, it wasn't spectacular. It rated only a 6.2 on a scale from 1 to 10. Let's hope Hollywood does a good job portraying Gregory's story on screen. Listen to what Gregory has to say about her book:
