In Royal Service to the Queen: A Novel of the Queen's Governess by Tessa Arlen

4.0

An entertaining historical fiction account of real-life Marion Crawford and her sixteen year service to the Windsor family as royal governess to the two princesses. Highly recommended for fans of the Netflix series The crown or The royal governess by Wendy Holden. I enjoyed the insider/outsider perspective of the royal family's life and the kinds of sacrifices Marion had to make in her own life to serve the family she loved but who didn't always treat her well. Great on audio narrated by Mhairi Morrison. Much thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for my advance review copy.
