The Queen’s Necklace
by Adrienne Chinn
View in Library Catalog
book cover


I am such an Anne Boleyn fan! So I’m glad I finally got to read this. I enjoyed the parallel stories of sisterhood through time. However, I didn’t care much for the other drama with the main character. I might be biased but Anne wasn’t portrayed well either. I’m not sure how much was based on history, as it is hard to know the truth - but I like to believe Anne was better than that!

First of all, Julia Whelan is one of my favorite narrators. I did like this book. However, the amount of explicit sex scenes during the second half was a turn off.

One of my favorite books ever, The Girl Who Threw Butterflies by Mick Cochrane. This novel is about a girl, Molly, who just lost her dad as an eighth grader. He taught her how to play baseball, with her mom lost in catalogs she makes a decision. Molly tries out for the baseball team and makes it with the pitch her dad taught her when she was little, a knuckleball or the butterfly ball.

A Life in Parts

It is an autobiography where the author starts out passive and becomes a powerful sought after actor. The book is very candid.

This was really good. The audible book was written by the author. I listen to books so quickly that I feel like I don’t have time to think about them. This one will stick with me for a while.

Kings of B'More

A touching novel following two queer black teens in Baltimore. I read this book as a potential highschool classroom reading book, and it holds potential to be a great recommendation for a student but lacks in full classroom applicability.

The Once and Future Queen

A fun and engaging re-imagining of Arthurian legend, I found myself quite enjoying this book. I especially found Vera's perspective and constant struggle with her sense of inadequacy to be well-balanced with her drive and strength of personality. She's undoubtedly a fish out of water in this story, and is constantly learning/receiving help from others, but she has a strong voice and refuses to be passive in her decision-making. This is highlighted by her varied and very distinct dynamics with the supporting cast. If there was one thing I'd have liked to see more, it would have been the inclusion of more female characters, because, despite how enjoyable Vera as a character is to read, I feel like the story and world would benefit from giving her more women to interact with and talk to. I'll still be checking out the followup when it comes out, and hope we get more women in that one.
