Not a bad book, just definitely not what I was expecting or looking for based on the synopsis. It started out cutesy and fun, but definitely turned a little more odd and academic towards the end.

Un breve what if nella  vita di una delle donne più famose e potenti al mondo, una volta che viene catturata e invasa dall’-amore per la lettura. 
Un’affascinante sguardo alla monarchia, diverso dagli altri, che permette di vedere una donna non per la corona che si ritrova a portare al capo ma una semplice lettrice novizia come tante. 
Niente di incredibile, veloce e leggero, ma cattura il lettore fino alla fine.

I adored this story. There were weird bits of homophobia though that were disturbing.
