Review of 'Queen Elizabeth II and the Royal Family' on 'Goodreads'
More a reminder that regardless of the obvious differences, some deep personal problems faced by these royals are very similar to what my friends have gone through. This book is a bit outdates though, it was before Megan Markle's move into the Royals.
1. My favorite of all royals has to be Princess Anne.
- She liked horses
- She made the best of her privileges without drawing attention
- She led a normal life while being a princess.
If there is one princess that I would like to swap life with, maybe it is with her.
Although I like my own life to swap with anyone's for that matter.
2. Never knew Mountbatten was killed. I am not too sure, but I guess he was responsible for the independence of India. I wouldn't be surprised if he were killed by citizens from any of the countries colozined by UK, …

2. Never knew Mountbatten was killed. I am not too sure, but I guess he was responsible for the independence of India. I wouldn't be surprised if he were killed by citizens from any of the countries colozined by UK, but ironically he was killed by the Irish. From what I know of Mountbatten(which is very little) he seemed like a nice, decent guy who did his best. RIP Mountbatten.
Interesting read. Hope monarchy and all kinds of meaningless things that divides people and cause inequality of any kind rot and die.
Happy Jubliee everyone!
