Lovely and meandering in the best possible way. Seriously, I‘m not sure how Queen Elizabeth‘s handbags haven‘t gotten some kind of honour for their decades of silent and faithful service. I got oddly emotional at points, especially later in the book (maybe because I personally remember the emotion of those moments). I‘m glad it ended shortly after William and Kate‘s wedding, because I bawled at the end of The Crown and could not handle that again.

GingerAntics This portrays Charles as hard done by and far more innocent in the collapse of his first marriage that is fair. Even though this is written by an American, it still does a wonderful job of telling the story of the late Queen. #SallyBedellSmith #ElizabethTheQueen #ElizabethII 2w

I listened to the audio and thought this was very good. In the past few years, I‘ve read some about Victoria, so I don‘t think anything in this book came as a surprise, but it was interesting and I feel like the author‘s writing style is easy to “read” (or, in my case, listen to!).

TheBookHippie I like this author. She‘s very easy to read. 2w

Queen of the Sea | Dylan Meconis

The medievalish art on the cover of this giant graphic novel made me want to read it. I agree with other readers that it felt a bit long, though I still liked it. It was very educational on what life was like living as a nun and a scorned and punished woman on a desolate island. *Loosely inspired by the exile of Queen Elizabeth 1 by her sister Queen Mary in the 16th century.

Hello Litsy realm! After a truly, truly craptastic March. It‘s finally April and I‘m back! That said, today would have been my brother‘s 34th birthday (he died in a car accident in 2008 when he was 17…actually 16 days after his birthday). So today has been very emotional. But I‘m out having a quiet moment with a book, some food, and some beers at my favorite place to try and breath through the grief.

This was such a great book. I love the characters so much. The ending completely took me by surprise. I can‘t wait to see what happens with the rest of the series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

As Teddy stood, and the opening notes of the national anthem reverberated through the throne room, Beatrice realized what it meant.
The reign of America‘s first queen had officially begun, at last.
