Loved the beginning, the middle was a little hard to get through, but the ending tore open my heart. Such feels. I think this is a model historical fiction should base itself on. It was engaging and not too heavy in its historical tidbits. Goodwin was able to give life and dimension to these people (characters?). I often find realistic historical fiction to be too serious. I think authors are afraid to take too many liberties. I loved Victoria's spunky, go-get-em attitude. I'm assuming much of the relationship between Lord Melbourne and Victoria was creative licensing, but it is still sweet to read about. It makes me interested in her life, now the only problem is to find a biography that isn't too dense.
