Anyone reading this one? I haven’t read the first 2 so won’t get to it any time soon.

I haven't read the first 2 yet either. I have a hold on the audio version of Wolf Hall on my library app. Not sure when my turn will pop up. "Weeks" :)

Val I have read the first two, but am waiting for the library to reopen and allow me to collect my reserved copy of this one.

Update: Collected and started reading (6th July).

Val This is my favourite of all those I have read so far from the long list. I prefer it to the first two books in the series as well, because we get a lot more of Cromwell's thoughts and feelings, and his personal history.
I think the prize is more likely to go to something more topical and female-centred, unless the judges decide to share the prize between two books as the Booker jury did last year.
