A cozy queer rom-com that very much embodies the Princess Diaries comparison, complete with a few winks and nods, with a couple additional homages to Casey McQuiston's Red White and Royal Blue. It's excellent low stakes "happy ending" escapism, which is what many of us are in need of right now, even if some of the conflict comes off as a tad contrived as a result.

The writing was juvenile and not engaging. Life is too short to read bad books.

A cute read reminiscent of princess diaries and red, white, and royal blue. A sweet book that captured innocent and young love. The plot itself had some traction, but there wasn’t much conflict or crescendo for this book. It was a cute and enjoyable book to read that is perfect for a quick palate cleanser.

This was a cute read inspired by The Princess Diaries. Jamie's world is turned upside down when he finds out he's the heir to the throne in Mitanor. When he travels there to meet his father, he is introduced to Erik, a prince from another kingdom and sparks fly. While the plot is pretty unrealistic, it was still fun. Jamie's character was really sweet and Erik was also a fun character. They had adorable chemistry and I loved that their parents were supportive of them. Overall, its a really cute young adult romance. I listened to the audio and thought the narrators were fantastic and at expressing the characters emotions.
