Not my usual cup-o-tea, but ended up enjoying this. If you love The Crown, you should read this. Slightly different take on events - much less sensationalized for the most part. Curious to see both Margaret and Elizabeth side-by-side in this way - their incompatibility mixed with fierce familial loyalty. The Crown is really more focused on affairs of the state...

I received this as an ARC from GoodReads.

Quick thoughts:

For fans of The Crown, Author Andrew Morton is well known for his royal biographies, and Elizabeth and Margaret is all about the Windsor Sisters.

They were the best of friends for most of their early lives, until their uncle abdicated the throne. With that action, a rift was made that was only more pronounced as Margaret adjustes to her new position in the new royal household.

Beautifully-written with vibrant detail, I enjoyed this insightful glimpse into the lives of two most memorable sisters. Plus, there are pictures!

I received a gifted copy.

I loved learning more about Margaret and their relationship. Morton weaves the stories of their lives wonderfully.

Rounded up from 3.5. Intriguing, if a bit slow in places.
