Good news! This book is great for people prone to heart attacks
This book is like white bread.
It’s not particularly bad
But it’s boring
Yet sometimes…
It’s what you want

Like most of her novels, there is a lot of info given repeatedly, as if we didn't catch it the first few times. Liked the story line, just too much reiterating.

The writing and plot were nothing special, yet I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was a cute story and a light read.

ROYAL is the story of a fictional British royal family back during WW2 where the king and queen have three daughters. During the bombings in London, they send the youngest, Princess Charlotte, who has asthma, off to the countryside because of her health. There she falls in love with the son of the people’s she’s staying with and becomes pregnant. I enjoyed this story as a light, fluffy, don’t think too hard about it sort of beach read. I agree with other critiques that there is a lot of repeated material. Princess Charlotte, her husband, and everyone who cared about her die. The only people left alive are the baby and Lucy, a bitter girl who always resented Charlotte because she wanted Henry, Charlotte’s husband, and Henry chose her. Lucy raises the baby, Anne, as her own. The story picks up when Lucy is going to die and tells her husband the truth, and Charlotte is reunited with the royal family. The royal parts of the book were fun. I think my main criticism was that far too many characters were killed off. As soon as a character was developed and I started to get interested in them, they died. 4/5 stars.

I truly don’t understand how people loved this book. I must be missing something. I found it hard to read and it dragged on and on.
