American Royals
Autor Katharine McGeeen Limba Engleză Paperback – 5 mai 2020 – vârsta de la 14 ani
Two girls vying for the prince's heart.
This is the story of the American royals. When America won the Revolutionary War, its people offered General George Washington a crown. Two and a half centuries later, the House of Washington still sits on the throne. As Princess Beatrice gets closer to becoming America's first queen regnant, the duty she has embraced her entire life suddenly feels stifling. Nobody cares about the spare except when she's breaking the rules, so Princess Samantha doesn't care much about anything, either . . . except the one boy who is distinctly off-limits to her. And then there's Samantha's twin, Prince Jefferson. If he'd been born a generation earlier, he would have stood first in line for the throne, but the new laws of succession make him third. Most of America adores their devastatingly handsome prince . . . but two very different girls are vying to capture his heart. "Inventive, fresh, and deliciously romantic--American Royals is an absolute delight " --Sarah J. Maas, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Throne of Glass series and Court of Thorns and Roses series

Recenzii
Anaddictive Jilly Cooperesque saga
A fun, fast-paced read packed with drama, scandal and romance
With the seemingly endless influx of new novels hitting the real and virtual bookshelves every day, the choice can seem overwhelming. But, occasionally a novel comes along with the promise of delivering escapism by way of a subject matter - royals, romance and aGossip Girl-esque scandal - that isa no-brainer must-read. . .American Royals[is] just such a novelset to ignite and delight book clubsand literary-loving fans ofThe Princess Diaries,Gossip Girl,The Crownor even just the real-life British royals.
There's enough palaceintrigue, royal shenanigans, and even a smidgen of sex to satisfy anyone who loves a bit of gossip. . . An entertaining royal family modeled after the residents of Buckingham Palace.
McGee craftsa deliciously soapy American royal family. . . McGee's characters are well-crafted and flawed, giving the narrative emotional texture that elevates it above the dramatic formula
For readers looking for intrigue-and for those who like their royal fever with a twist-this isa quick and delicious read
A fun twist on history as we know it, andthe ending will have readers hoping for a sequel
I really enjoyed this book. For me it wasThe CrownmeetsGossip Girlwhich was always going to be a fun combination. The structure, pace and characterisation made this an easy and very enjoyable read.
Relatable, believable, fantastical, aspirational, and completely addictive . . . I loved, loved, loved this book
