I Was Anastasia
by Ariel Lawhon
View in Library Catalog
book cover


For nearly 60 years, until her death in 1984, Polish born factory worker Franziska Schanzkowska offered solace and comfort to a grieving international community with her identity claim as Anastasia Romanov, the youngest daughter of Czar Nicholas II, who was assinated in 1918. American author Ariel Lawhon has written this superb chronicle of Ms. Schanzkowska's daily struggles to achieve both the aristocratic status and the wealthy lifestyle with her impersonation of the tragic Russian teenager during the years 1917-1970. Everyday details of Anastasia's life are included in alternating chapters, culminating in the brutal execution of the Imperial family in July 1918. This is an exceptional historical novel: well-constructed and imaginatively crafted- and nearly impossible to set down, ever for an hour or so.

This book is narrated by the author, Frank McCourt. To say he lived a life of tragedy is putting it mildly. Throughout it all, he continued to move forward and see positivity and never gave up. Well worth a listen.

The book Aliens in Disguise is about two kids named David and Amy. The grandmother owns a bed and breakfast called the Intergalactic Bed & Breakfast. It's a place where aliens can go for vacation on Earth. Their grandmother has to go away and they are in charge of the bed & breakfast. They have to make sure that nobody finds out that there are aliens staying there. I rate this book as five stars. It was a great read and definitely recommend.
