The book does say she was beheaded and that she reigned for 9 days, contrary to other reviewers claims. I do wonder at why every fictional account of Jane feels inclined to give her some sort of great love of her life, differing only in who it is. This one gives us someone before she was forced to marry another. This is a very entertaining story, however, and not too bad in its historical fancies.

This book is written in the first person as though Lady Jane is telling her life story. It is well-written and very thoroughly gives the background and all the history involved. For anyone interested in this topic, it is a good book to read.

It was pitiful to see how this little 16 year old was over shadowed by her hated cousin Mary I and her other powerful and beloved cousin Elizabeth I. I have been searching far and wide for a book on this fasination female, hanged to death at such a tender age...beated by parent to marry at 14...sad thing is that there is no surviving picture of this strong headed intelligent being...she only survives in ones who give her the spotlight she hid from so long ago when she was alive. This fabulous and colorful nonfiction will break the hearts of the average human on earth, including teenagers.

Just like Anne Frank, Jane Grey was a female foresaken and taken for granted, this girl lived far more long ago in history, in a world we will never be able to comprehend or understand. This is a fabulous book, by a new talent!
