schray32 's review for:
I have been intrigued by these sisters with the little knowledge I knew about the Romanov family. This book is not really about the four sisters but the entire family and their life at court leading up to their death. Having daughters I find it very fascinating that they were secluded from society as a whole despite the fact that they were royalty. I loved the insight on their religious faith. This perspective, to me, was the most interesting part of this book. The whole family has amazing faith. The father Nicolas says "it is not evil that will conquer evil- only love." I loved the letters in this book and loved the perspective those actual conversations give you on their life. This is not a book for the light hearted. I love biographies and found this very interesting although it was a heavy read. A little bit of a misleading title but I understand that you cannot tell the Romanov sisters' stories without telling the whole family's story.
