amibunk 's review for:
American Royals
by Katharine McGee
3.5 stars but rounding up because the idea of a duke of Boston is just too fun.
What a fun, gossipy, romp of a read. I loved reading about an alternative American reality that had a monarchy rather than a democratic republic. To me, this is the very definition of fun fiction- exploring options and places just to see how they "feel."
The characters came across as very young, dramatic, and a tiny bit flat. I am hopeful the second book in this series flushes everyone out a bit more and adds some depth. I am also hopeful that Daphne gets a smack down, Nina gets a backbone, Samantha gets a grip, and Beatrice gets a therapist.
We'll see what happens.
