“The Queen’s fake tweets perfectly sum up British humour . . . on a rather glorious spoof twitter account” (Culture Trip).
 
She may not know firsthand the challenges of sitting atop the British throne for more than sixty years, but @Queen_UK has learned that ruling the Twitterverse is not for the faint of heart—or wit. Despite it all, she’s still in charge, still iconic, and still keeping the gin industry in business. Still reigning.
 
In this uproarious collection of musings from a matriarch, the Queen [of Twitter] shares some unvarnished opinions about her subjects and the rest of the civilized world. Of her adoring public across the pond in America, she notes, “One thinks of them as a mother thinks of a teenage boy: with a mixture of pride and exasperation.” Witty and insightful, Still Reigning is a glimpse inside the mind of Britain’s pop monarch.

“It’s the sort of book to leave beside the loo, a jokey compilation you can dip in and out of—though I will be reading it from cover to cover, grinning from ear to ear because of its sharp, quick-witted and always apt sending-up of people with a public life.” —F**oodepedia
 
“Our favourite tweeter is publishing her diary. Here’s The Queen [of Twitter]’s guide to festive etiquette.” —Marie Claire
