Anastasia: The Last Grand Duchess

I recently finished reading this book, and it is now my second favorite Royal Diary book. This book begins when the Grand Duchess Anastasia is only 12 years old after a ball for the four Grand Duchesses: Olga, Tatiana, Marie, Anastasia (OTMA, as they are called in this book) and ends when Anastasia is 16 during the time of the war. This book was very interesting to read and i finished it very fast. It mentioned alot of things i hadn't known about the Romanav family, for Example, Anastasia's mother was the grand daughter of Queen Victoria of England. This book is filled with information and is great for all ages to read.
The most interesting part of this book, in my opinion, is at the end of the book when they leave for Siberia. The least interesting part of this book is probubly at the beggining, although everything in this book is great.
there are also pictures and things at the back of the book, after the story. It has a picture of "The house of special purpose", where Anastasia and her family lived there last days.
Overall, this is definetly a book you'll want to buy. It was interesting to read, much more interesting than i thought it would be, and i would definetly recomend it to anyone that wants a different book to read.

A Great Book

This book has a very interesting epiloge. During the book her life was going smooth but later it all went down hill. This book is very interesting and I wouldn't recamid this to children under 7.


The last duchess of Russia tells her story...

Anastasia's account of the last few years before her family's execution is very accurate, while seemingly that of a twelve year old girl.
She is the daughter of the Tsar of Russia, with three sisters, Olga, Maria, and Tatiana, and a very sickly young brother, Alexi.The country is clearly going into troublesome times. Much is known about the period of history in which the last Tsar and his family were executed.
But the account hardly comes from the young girl herself.
And interesting depiction of the day-to-day life of the last Grand Duchess of Russia.

Anastasia: The Last Grand Duchess

The book is about Anastasia live. At the beginning of the book everthing is going well. But on the first of August 1914 there father anoust that they were going to war with the Germans.At first they were a lot of battles. Then as time went on they startded to lose more and more battles. People of Russia were starting to get very angry at the Tsar so he had no choice but to give up his Tsar. But family still had to be pertected. Sothey moved to small village of Inglad. But one night the guards told them to go down stairs in a room. And a few min. later men came into the room and started shooting. So the royal family was killed.
The charcters in this book are the roal family. Alexandra,Tsar,Olga,Tatiana,Maria,Anastasia and Alexei.
Over all i think the book was great .But it was Anastasia dairy which a got to read her thougts.And I would read it again if I'd had the chance.
