Really well-written biography, in a way that makes you feel like you are right there with the Queen of Sweden. Unfortunately, having learned so much about her now, I am not a fan! She was spoiled, selfish, coarse, unfocused, fearful (despite an outward shell of supposed bravery), hateful to her own country, and drama-loving.
