American Royals
by Katharine McGee
Okay, so I really wanted to be delighted with the entirety of this book. The beginning was jaunty and fun, but the drama level rather suddenly escalated beyond my personal threshold of what’s enjoyable for light fiction. I appreciate a healthy level of drama and plot twists, but when it starts to encroach on soap opera, drama-for-the-sake-of-drama territory, I get weirdly anxious and restless and feel the urge to just step away. I did like the book overall, and thought the premise was interesting, but there came a point in the last quarter or so that I really had to force myself to push through to the end. I’m undecided about whether I’ll read the next installment or not.
