Wideacre by Philippa Gregory Book Summary

From #1 New York Times bestselling author Philippa Gregory comes the stunning first novel of a thrilling trilogy about the Lacey family, and the captivating woman at the heart of a power-hungry estate willing to go to any means to protect her family name.

Beatrice Lacey, as strong-minded as she is beautiful, refuses to conform to the social customs of her time. Destined to lose her heritage and beloved Wideacre estate once she is wed, Beatrice will use any means necessary to protect her ancestral name. Seduction, betrayal, even murder—Beatrice’s passion is without apology or conscience. “She is a Lacey of Wideacre,” her father warns, “and whatever she does, however she behaves, will always be fitting.” Yet even as Beatrice’s scheming seems about to yield her dream, she is haunted by the one living person who knows the extent of her plans...and her capacity for evil.

Sumptuously set in Georgian England from the “queen of royal fiction” (USA TODAY), Wideacre is intensely gripping, rich in texture, and full of color and authenticity. It is a saga as irresistible in its singular magic as its heroine.

Worth it?. I love Philippa Gregory. Subject content and prose is always spot on. This book was too wordy, too flowy, repetitive lengthy adjective riddled descriptions of everything added bulk when it wasn’t needed. The entire book drones on and on so it’s a big bite if you choose to chew this one. Is it worth the read? Idk...it was an entertaining story but it doesn’t even grab you until roughly 1000pgs in. 1000 pages! Also, the timeline was confusing. For example, main character was a young child and then through one of those lengthy reflective descriptive monologues she’s all of a sudden 15.

Wideacre. I have been entranced by many of Gregory's novels but this one I actually deleted from my library after reading over half of it. I got no enjoyment from reading the main character plotting one heartless murder after another. There is nothing good that ever happens and any hope of it dies. I downloaded the sample and then the entire book - so eager to read further. If you are curious about the workings of the mind of an amoral criminal for hundreds of pages this is your book.

Wideacre. I have remand about a fourth of this book and it is terrible. Made me feel sick. I have read many of this author's books and loved them but not this one.

Don’t waste your time or money. I can not stomach reading this book any longer. The main character is so perverted and disgusting I can not even finish. Who is your audience Phillipa????

Not for the faint of heart. This trilogy is a journey, an emotional rollercoaster, and most importantly a reminder that we should never lose ourselves in our greed. The main character, Beatrice, made me viscerally hate her. I found myself so hungry for vengeance, but I promise you, if you give this trilogy a chance, the karma is well worth the wait. I absolutely love Philippa Gregory. She’s able to transport me into the time periods that she writes about. She is one of my favorite authors.

Wideacre. I love the Philippa Gregory novels, but this book is awful. Paragraph after paragraph of the same thoughts and same ideas. The repetition is relentlessly boring. I can skip reading a page, and not miss anything. Too bad. I was looking forward to a good read. :(
