From amazon.com:
Georgina Danforth Witley shares her birthday―April 21, 1926―with Queen Elizabeth II, a coincidence that has led to an invitation to a special 80th-birthday lunch at Buckingham Palace. While she should be on her way to London, Georgie lies injured in a ravine not far from her own house, the result of a car accident en route to the airport. Desperately hopeful that someone will find her, Georgie relies on her strength, her family memories, her no-nonsense wit and a recitation of the names of the bones in her body―a long-forgotten exercise from childhood that reminds her she is still very much alive.

I enjoyed this book very much. As Georgie, an octogenarian, lays waiting to be rescued, she is in and out of consciousness and in both states, reminisces about her life, her loves, her sorrows and her family. She parallels her life events to those of Queen Elizabeth II as they share a birthday and their lives followed similar paths.
