Queen Victoria: Twenty-Four Days That Changed Her Life by Lucy Worsley

3.0

I will say that focusing on twenty-four days is a really novel concept for a royal biography, especially when the subject has been written about as much as Victoria has been. However, it weirdly feels lacking at points when I wanted more information (I know her widowhood was spent a lot in isolation, but that is a large portion of her life and queenhood). I also wonder if some of other events could have been better fits (for example one of the other weddings besides Beatrice, since Victoria was known as the Grandmother of Europe who had an eye for marrying off family members to the "right people").
