Victoria by Daisy Goodwin
4.0
Taken from the pages of Queen Victoria's diary, this coming of age story will transport you into the life of a young monarch as she takes on the role of Queen alone. I'm finding that while I once shied away from historical fiction books, I have found a new love for them and now seek them out after reading this book. I loved how rich with real history this book was and how you struggled alongside the characters. Being a young Queen is no easy task which you learn to fully understand reading of Princess Alexandrina ('Drina') Victoria's ascent.
The reason I didn't give this book 5 stars is there were certain sections of the writing that felt choppy and lacking the additional detail that the rest of the book had.
Overall, I would certainly recommend this book to anyone who fancies English history or enjoys historical fiction.
