The Six: The Lives of the Mitford Sisters

I read Mary S. Lovell's book about the Mitfords years ago, and that would still be my go-to, but I really enjoyed this. Thompson's writing is very easy and familiar. She's a bit forgiving of a lot of bad (and abhorrent) behavior, but since I believe the girls couldn't have done other than they did, I can't complain. I liked how Nancy's books were woven through where applicable. I'm not sure why the main narrative ended with Sydney's death, but I liked the sum ups in the afterword. Overall, well done and I think it would be a decent introduction to the family (because while Lovell's book is great, it's very long).
