The Uncommon Reader: A Novella by Alan Bennett

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
One day while chastising her dogs for being noisy, the Queen of England noticed a mobile library (bookmobile) parked nearby and went in to apologize for the noise her dogs were making. She then felt compelled to borrow a book. This was the beginning of several years of discovering new books and reading all manner of books, sometimes to the detriment of her duty. This was an interesting book about what a difference reading can make in a life. If you enjoy books about reading, books, libraries, or royalty, this is a good choice.
