Interred with Their Bones by Jennifer Lee Carrell

3.0

I picked up this book having seen it on Goodreads. Having taken a Shakespeare class in college, I was well aware of the numerous conspiracy theorists about Shakespeare. I was set to discover a new theory or a very solid case for who the real writer(s) are, especially coming from an author who teaches on the subject. Unfortunately, I think the book gets too bogged down in a large number of historical figures (unrecognizable to some extent.) In addition, there is a lack of substance/believability to the plot or even conviction. Somehow, The Da Vinci Code was able to convince me to go along with a very implausible plot, this book didn't ever do that. I found myself continuing to read trying to discover the conviction or reason to believe in the heroine's quest.
