brittmariasbooks 's review for:

Romanov by Nadine Brandes
2.0

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Thomas Nelson through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

When I requested this book on NetGalley, I thought it would be a retelling of the 1997 movie Anastasia which I absolutely love. This book is, however, a retelling of the history of the Romanovs with some magic thrown in. And I really liked it for the first half.
However, after that, I just could not get into the romance anymore
Spoiler because he shoots her but she forgives him and they get together in the end and I just can't buy that.
