Queen Victoria's Matchmaking by Deborah Cadbury

4.0

This was a book that I was excited about when I found out about it. I figured it was going to be a mixtures of letters, diary entries, and other things. Turns out it’s not. With the title being Queen Victoria’s Matchmaking you would think there would have been more about her involvement in some of these matches. This to me seemed to be more of a look into the couples themselves with some of Queen Victoria’s views thrown. I did learn from this book. Which is why it has a 4 Star rating. The only couples I actually knew anything about where Nicky and Alix and Sergei and Elizabeth. I did know a little about George v and Queen Mary but not as much as I knew about the previous couples. So this was definitely an interesting read.
