*I was sent a copy of the book by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.* This was auch a quick and entertaining read. I really enjoyed American Royals and can’t wait to read the sequel next year! 2020/2021 REREAD: I once again really enjoyed this book and can't wait to start reading Majesty right away. I also recommend not listening to sad songs while reading the last few pages of American Royals because I once again bawled my eyes out while reading the last chapter of it. instagram
American Royals is one of the worst books I've ever read. It makes no sense, the characters are selfish brats, the drama is terrible and problematic, and the writing is bland. 🚨THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK.🚨The concept of this book is that George Washington was crowned King of America after the Revolutionary War, and the US has been ruled by Kings ever since then. First of all, the Revolution was, you know, fought to get rid of the monarchy, so why is Washington suddenly
You know when you read a book and feel like it is directly meant to be on Netflix as a romcom? this. 😂So it was fun! I hoped it would be a bit like a YA version of Red White & Royal Blue, but it wasn't (that's on me for expectations, not on the book!). It's very much about the pressures of a life under the scrutiny of the public eye. Tbh I thought it'd be MORE stressful with scandals and paparazzi and clean up and all that. But I really liked how each character responded to their lot in live. An...
AMERICAN ROYALS was a concept I was excited about because, for all the royalty romances out there, we've never had one that reimagined, and rewrote, American history to fashion them with royalty (or at least I’ve never seen/read one!). Beyond that, however, I didn't really know what to expect. My guess was drama, politics, and many things in between.It's definitely drama. Politics, not so much. This is all drama. It's like Gossip Girl on steroids in some ways, I think. Maybe. I only watched like...
4 stars What if America had a royal family? This book was a drama-fest and I couldn't get enough of it. It's one of those stories you don't want to put down because it's so entertaining.American Royals takes place in a world where America has a royal family instead of a democracy. The Washingtons' have been in power since the start and this is their family's story. This follows a few characters, the first being Beatrice who is next in line for the crown. The next is her sister, Sa...
Well. This didn’t go very well.I love a fun, fluffy, romance-y read. I love royalty tropes. I love Ragtag Groups Of Quirky Teenage Friends. I even love...some drama. And when I picked this up, I thought I would either get that or a big heaping cereal bowl of disappointment.Maybe my expectations have been irrevocably made too high by Red, White & Royal Blue, but...boy oh boy did I get the latter.It also could have been my fault for not realizing this was the first in a series. I was like...WHERE
this story reminded me exactly of KMs other series, ‘the thousandth floor.’ which is to say, i had fun reading this. this isnt as drama-filled, but the heavy cast of characters and how their lives intertwine and mix with each other is very on-brand for KM. i know some people may complain about the length, especially because there essentially isnt a plot, but i didnt mind it. i had fun and enjoyed reading about each of the characters and their relationships with each other. like i said, there rea...
Instagram || Twitter || Facebook || Amazon || PinterestSomebody was comparing AMERICAN ROYALS to CRAZY RICH ASIANS, and I think to do so is really unfair because CRAZY RICH ASIANS tapped into a lot of dialogues about race, class, and culture that AMERICAN ROYALS doesn't really do. Oh, it tries, but if anything it's just a thought experiment designed to write yet another frothy story about princesses. And if that's your cup of Earl grey tea, more power to you, but I think it's dangerous-- and
I had seen low ratings for this book, but hadn't read the reviews, so I had hoped that I could find some enjoyment from this book but I did not.In an alternate history, George Washington became King after the American Revolution was won. Centuries later, House Washington is still on the throne. Now, Princess Beatrice is first in line for the throne and will be the first Queen, but her parents are pushing her to get married. This book is a disaster. First, the world really isn't explained well at...
2.5 stars, rounded upWhat if America hadn't gone the radical route of elected government officials and democracy, and instead had offered George Washington a crown and he had inexplicably taken it?This is the intriguing alternate history of a world that could have been, with the royal siblings—Crown Princess Beatrice, twins Samantha and Jefferson—and their friend Nina, navigating the world of love, romance, expectations and social media.It's very gossipy and filled with the glitz, glamor, gossip...
