I don’t exactly know why but I had such a hard time reading this one. My mind kept wandering. I had to « force » myself back in the story and re-read the same lines over and over again. I think most of it is because I don’t know much about the Royal Family and I didn’t get most of the references. Or maybe because I knew how it was going to end. (The first chapter starts at present day and then goes back in time until it reaches present day.) Although this is not always a bad thing when it is done well. The pace of the story is so slow that I kept losing interest. Overall it’s not a bad story, but something clearly didn’t work for me because it took me a lot longer that I was expecting to read it. I had to sprint through the last half because I just wanted to finish it. 😪
