I've read both, I think I liked The Other Boleyn Girl better, even though Gregory blatantly rewrites history a bit. It's historical fiction after all, so she can be forgiven
 I've also read others by her... The Constant Princess, The Virgin Queen, The Boleyn Inheritance... I think that might be it... Anyway, if you liked the first one you read, you will definitely like any others by her...

And then she mentions The Other Boleyn Girl which is another title by Philippa Gregory...

lol opps
then youll have to read the one im talking about. i like that author as well (the one this thread is about) but The Queens Own fool is great. If you like the Constant Princess and her other writings, youll like jane yolen (i think) too
