The Uncommon Reader by Alan Bennett (117 pages)


MissTree loaned this one to me; it's an ARC she picked up at her work. What a wonderful little book. I admit that I had to keep a dictionary handy, as there were more than a few words I encountered that I was unfamiliar with. Overall, I really enjoyed the story. It's funny how all the Queen's advisors got so bent out of shape over her reading. Heaven forbid she start reading and *egad* thinking! I loved the last line of the book - it certainly elicited a giggle from me! :)
