I enjoyed this detail-oriented and illustrated biography of the late Queen. I also thought the layout and chapters were very well organized, although it leaned slightly in the style of a textbook. The beautiful photos and cool "fun-facts" I never knew made up for it, though. RIP Her Majesty

A sort of documentary on paper, very un-scandalous and tame, a bit boring in parts, but some other parts were quite good.

Just Finished (15) Life with the Queen by Brian Hoey. No amazing tidbits or insights, just more and more admiration for this remarkable woman. God Save the Queen!
