britlaccetti 's review for:
Victoria
by Daisy Goodwin
This book was really terrible.
1. The characters are undeveloped and have zero depth besides "he is serious" and "he is old" and "she is stubborn" and "she is really good at fashion". I realize the author wanted Queen Victoria to come off as "an average teenager who happens to be a Queen" but she actually came off annoying, snotty, and ridiculous.
2. The book is basically a made up romance by Goodwin, and not even a good one. The relationship between Lord M and Victoria drag on through the entire book and leave the reader wondering what the actual plot is supposed to be.
3. Alfred comes out of no where and BAM they hate each other and BAM JUST KIDDING. No development, no flame. Nothing besides a tragically boring story.
4. I fell asleep multiple times while reading this.
5. The point-of-view changes so much without any warning that you often have to go back and see what just happened to the other character.
