Becoming Queen Victoria: The Tragic Death of Princess Charlotte and the Unexpected Rise of Britain's Greatest Monarch by Kate Williams

4.0

I accidentally posted this under my mom's account.....

I FINALLY FINISHED THIS!!!!!! Oh my God! Really interesting dual biography of Princess Charlotte and Queen Victoria. There were lots of very interesting insights into such a collection of characters including a much more well-rounded portrait of the Duchess of Kent than I expected. I loved reading about Charlotte who I knew very little about before I read this. Really good, really readable....one criticism from off the top of my head is that Williams references caricatures a lot but there was only one reprint of one. It made it hard to visualize.

5 out of 50 book year
