Cue for Treason

I actually really enjoyed this book. I had trouble connecting with it and getting started, but once I did, it was good. The concept of this book was really unique. It really made me think more about Shakespearean England, and also about civil rights. It really made me curious about women' rights back then. The fact that Kit was herself and pursued her own ideas and hobbies no matter what really inspired me. She wanted to act and she knew she wasn't allowed. So she did something about it. She changed the face of acting. By being who she was, she inspired other women to stand up as well. I'm sure she is the inspiration for today's society with acting- where it mostly is women now. Peter is also an inspiring fellow. He ran into so many troubles along the way but he never gave up. He could have hidden the whole time but that wouldn't have made him a hero, now would it? He risked his life multiple times to save others'. He was able to read between the lines and solve the mystery. After finishing the story, I was still wondering exactly what happened to Tom Boyd. It was hinted that he was killed, but it would have been nice to know what happened exactly, and whether he was killed or not. Also, i was confused as to why they wanted to kill the Queen, and i wondered how they got the actor to help them. Overall, it was a good book and it taught me a lot.
