Booktrail the locations: Victoria letters
I do love a book that accompanies and enhances what you see on the television and this is just lovely! The photos are gorgeous and the behind the scenes information is very interesting. It more than enhances the book and with the historical snippets this is both a coffee table book and one to treasure. Victoria's letters are really nicely woven into a book that captures your imagination and it's a very worth purchase - one to treasure!

I always loved the story about British Monarchy and one of them is about Queen Victoria is. I watched movie Young Victoria, The Queen even the king's speech is one of my favorite movie LOL. I just know this books is based on the new TV series that i haven't watch it yet. So i will watch it after finish this pieces. *Fingercrossed ;p
The things that i like in this books is we just know the another side of Queen Victoria from her letters to people surrounding her. I just found some truth that in the beginning the Queen is falling in love with Prince ernest not Prince Albert.. She wants to get married using White wedding dress in that time some myths said it wasn't good one a virgin using white as wedding dress. Another fact is her throne's ascendion is far away cheaper than william IV, the previous king is. I also just know that Queen have mistress of robes, lady of bedchamber, maids of honor, etc and it was compulsory to them for mastering france, germany and latin language.
One of my favorite part is Helen Rappaport is the one who written this books and i really adore her writing in [b:The Romanov Sisters: The Lost Lives of the Daughters of Nicholas and Alexandra|18404173|The Romanov Sisters The Lost Lives of the Daughters of Nicholas and Alexandra|Helen Rappaport|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1396818138s/18404173.jpg|26038032] :D

Dieses wunderschöne und wissenswerte Buch hat mein Interesse zu dem Thema „Queen Victoria“ auf jeden Fall geweckt!✨💕Ein Buch, was auch die Tiefen sowie die Höhen einer so plötzlichen Regentschaft perfekt herübergebracht hat. 👑❤️

Good companion to Season 1 of the show. I read this after watching Season 2, so I didn't get as much out of it as I could have. Especially helpful for remembering who's who and their backstories.
