Review: Five on Brexit Island

Five on Brexit Island is one of the earlier spoofs on the Famous Five featuring adult and modern versions of the beloved children's books characters.   I admit I wasn't looking forward to this one as I feel I've probably read as much as I want to about Brexit.

The characterisations aren't quite as well developed as later books, but it's still a mildly diverting read.  But for those of you who want to find political analogies in the characters then I'll leave you to uncover them. Certainly, Julian resembles a former PM...

Verdict: Not the best in the series, but not the worst either.
