The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett
4.0
funny lighthearted fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

A funny and irreverent look at what might have happened if the Queen - at the age of eighty or so - had become a prolific reader. I particularly enjoyed the glimpses of Prince Philip.
