The Last Queen by C.W. Gortner
3.0
I don't know the history of Spain well enough to comment on Juana's story, but The Last Queen was engaging and has made me want to know more about Spain's history and Ferdinand and Isabella. Like most monarchies, the family seems very complicated, and from what I can tell, Juana wasn't treated very well by her own parents, let alone her husband.
Being English, I automatically think of the Spanish as "the enemy", loving the Elizabethan era as I do :-P Nevertheless, this was a good opportunity to see the other side of things.
