A review by lozzatheyank
Victoria by Daisy Goodwin

2.0

If I hadn’t watched the series “Victoria” prior to reading this book perhaps I would have enjoyed the book more. The colourful tv series left me with high hopes in written form. Victoria the novel is nothing more than a dragged out coming of age of a bratty 18 year old rebelling against her mother and falling in love.

The characters fell into their assigned places and stayed there the whole 400 pages. The lacking dynamism left me teetering between putting this one down and not picking it up again or trudging through.

Overall, would pass on this read. If historical romantic fiction tickles your fancy try the Other Boleyn Girl.
