The uncommon reader review5/10/2023 ![]() ![]() While technically well-educated, she has little interest in reading for pleasure and sees books as a chore to be muddled through. With a distinctly British sense of deadpan satire, The Uncommon Reader tells the story of the queen of England, and how an accidental encounter with a mobile library while chasing after one of her poorly behaved corgis ends up leading to an all-consuming love for literature. The Uncommon Reader was one of those books that didn’t leave me with anything truly negative to say about it, but the characters and storyline didn’t stick with me either. I recently bought a few of Alan Bennett’s books, and even though I found this one underwhelming I’ll probably give something else by him a chance sooner or later. ![]()
