kararice_ 's review for:

Lady Almina and the Real Downton Abbey by Fiona Carnarvon

2.0

---

I read this book because I love Downton Abbey and was interested in learning more about the people and the house in reality. (It was also a gift.) This book offers lots of information and history. However, it was written in such a rambling way that I had difficulty reading it. It felt like neither a storied version of history nor a biography. I nearly stopped reading it several times. Despite interesting subject matter, I could only give it two stars because of the writing.
