2.5 stars rounded up.

This was a cute book but somehow it missed the mark for me. I liked the premise and the setting but didn’t really connect with the characters until the very end. I liked the ending a lot and I don’t know why I didn’t find the book more enjoyable. I wasn’t a huge fan of the humor and at times I felt genuinely bored.

I think this is a case of “it’s not you it’s me”. I think other people might adore it but it just wasn’t my jam.

THIS BOOK WAS CUTE I WAS BURYING MY HEAD IN A PILLOW AND SQUEALING EVERY FIVE SECONDS. it was also SO emotional and I loved it so much. it also mentioned schitt’s creek and downton abbey two of my all time favourite shows so it gets about a hundred brownie points im so excited for the sequel

Wow, this book was so so good and I'm so glad I read it! If you like the Princess Diaries, Crazy Rich Asians, American Royals, and/or Loveboat, Taipei, then Tokyo Ever After is sure to be a slam dunk for you. This story features a lost princess, a swoony bodyguard, family drama, and coming into yourself. And a bit of gossip and drama! So much fun, and absolutely heartwarming. I totally cried a few times!
