Kate
The future queen is the biography book of Kate Middleton, the wife of Prince
William of British Royal Family. Katie Nichol succeeded to get the reader
attention especially by the flow she had taken for this book. I love the way
she tells the story not only from the early age of Kate Middleton itself but
far away from her grandparents even though it was just slightly. The story gets
deeper when it started to come onto Kate early life hood. I also found people
surroundings Kate quotation and point of view of her such as Mrs. Alford (her
teacher), George Brown (her neighbor) and friends that support her profile to stand
out more and trustworthy.
The
only problem I had while reading this book is the slow plot given by the
author. When I expected to get to know her daily life with the royal family in
the fourth or fifth chapter, it turned out so long. The meeting of Kate and
Prince William was found when I reached the chapter eight. The early life of
Kate family was taking too much portion that I think not necessarily explained.
The direct statement of Kate was also hardly to find in this book. It will be
more fascination if the reader can find the direct statement of Kate as the
main character in this book.
Kate is super popular when she was in college and went to
the same University with Prince William at St. Andrew. She is very charming and
well know as no-make up beauty. Morover the best part of her and also the part
that I can learn from is her confidence and independence. Many people talks
badly behind about her close relation with the prince. But she didn’t mind it
and continue her friendship with prince William long before they have each
other feeling. In terms of carrier, she was a really independent woman. Once
her business got in debt, but she tried to proof to her father that she could
handle it and didn’t as for his money. I learned that, though she had
everything on her hand, she was trying her best she could. I should reflects it
on my life, and trying not to make my parents in hard situation.
Kate’s
Childhood life is not all good memories. She had been through bullying at
school, when she moved. I could relate to what Kate felt, because I had been
bullied when I was in Junior high school. The difference is when Kate got bullied she felt uncomfortable and
became quiet and avoided
her friends. Otherwise, I took it as having fun with my friends, and still
hanging out with them to conceal myself in reality that I actually being
bullied.
The whole pages of books tell the love story of Kate and
Prince William in general. The romance was really sweet and warm. This book is
about Kate, but I fall on statement that Prince William ever said in the book.
It was the best quote I found. He said “ ...I had my millitary career and I
really wanted to concentrate on my flying, and I couldn’t have done this if I
was still doing my training, so I’ve got that out of the way and Kate’s in a good place in terms of work
and where she wants to be, and we both just decided now was a really good time”.
His revelation represents his wise thought on relationship. It got my eye
because it was similar with my principal of life. I belive that we should
prioritize our dream first and not in rush with relationship. Good time will come
along we reached what we have to finish first.
This
book is good for people who interested in royal family history, and fan of Kate
Middleton. I would recommend this book to my mother. She was a fan of royal
family especially Princess Diana. When Kate and Prince William marriage was
broadcasted on the TV, My mom would never miss a single thing. She put so much
attention to know about the royal family, that’s why I think this book will be
a good reading for her.
