Wonderful historical fiction

Love that the author based alot of the characters on real people and that she was able to weave in historical records into the story without boring you with the facts.
Love the narrators and the pace of the book, overall a good book and I recommend anyone who like historical fiction to get this book

Good book horrible narration edit

Revisado: 02-25-22

This is a good book and the narration is fine EXCEPT that I can literally hear all the noises a mouth makes when speaking and I find that extremely annoying. Poor editing on this book, should have filtered out those noises

Interesting twist

Revisado: 02-03-22

I listened to Graham’s book and immediately love his narration. Story jumps back and forth between the past and present which can be confusing when pausing the book for extended periods of time. Overall I thought it was a well written story with lots of people with quirky things about them or places. Love that twist to the story.

Wow! Simply wow

This book started off slow and I stopped listening to it a few times but after I finally started it back up and the story progressed I found that I couldn’t stop listening. I listen while I’m at work and there for several days where I was sorry I had to stop because I was done work for the day.
The only thing I’m really going to say without giving any real details is that the twist in this book I did not see coming and what a twist it is!
Do yourself a favor and take the time to listen to this book, you won’t regret it at all!

Amazing

Revisado: 01-17-19

I was hesitant at first about this book but after having finished it I am very happy with my choice. I love this kind of story, I’m a history nerd at heart and this just was perfect for me.
Listening to what the families had to endure during the war was fascinating to me.
I would highly recommend this book to any history nerds like myself.
I loved the voices the narrator used for each character especially the mother. Also she did an excellent job at reading this book, sometimes narrations and the pronunciation can be terrible but that’s not the case with this one.

I had always liked Michelle Obama while she was in the White House but after listening to her story, I have a new found appreciation for her. She seems to have found that balance in life that all working Moms strive to find. She set her priorities and stuck to them which isn’t always the easiest thing to do.
This book has made me want to listen to other books about/by First Ladies. Thank you Michelle for your wonderful book

I like the story and love that it’s set in Ireland. My favorite part of this was the way she voiced the characters.

Wow, what an amazing story

Would you listen to Elizabeth the Queen again? Why?

I will definitely listen to this again. It's an amazing story. What a life she has experienced so far.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Elizabeth the Queen?

Learning about her dilemma in regards to her sister Margaret wanting to marry Group Captain Townsend.

What does Rosalyn Landor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She brings her experience on knowing how to draw in the listener to the story

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Mostly a wow reaction. After I finished this book, I was left with a now what? What book could follow a book this good

Any additional comments?

Love learning about all her experiences and all that goes with being a princess and then becoming queen.

Wow

I bought this book on a whim and partly because Dan Stevens is the narrator. Love his character voices. By the end of the book I've completely forgotten that it is Dan Stevens reading. What a find bought on a whim!
