I've only ever given up on a book once and that was this summer!
The book wasn't really what I expected, not enough information about Victoria for me, there seemed to be far more about the people around her (which I suppose is fair as they did influence her).
I like to get a real feel for a person when I read a biography but didn't get that from this book so it was a bit of a disappointment for me.
Maybe I've read too many modern biographies/autobiographies where it seems much easier to know a person due to media attention etc.
