Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston
2.0

Ratings:
Stars: 2/5
Readability: 3/5
Plot: 3/5
Recommend: No

Summary:
Alex is the president's son and Henry is the Prince of Wales. Both the children of powerful leaders of different countries, neither of which like each other. But as an incident occurs at the royal wedding, both boys are forced to spend time together.

What I Liked:
The beginning relationships were fine, nothing extraordinary.

What I Didn't Like:
The "enemies" portion of the story was short and not really that well developed. They clearly didn't like each other, but it's not like they were "enemies" or something. (Especially when it was revealed that Henry was
in love with Alex ever since they had met
.

The forced mentioning of the trio or the crew of six was kind of cringy. I don't understand why it was necessary.

At 50% of the way through the book, I started to get bored and not want to finish the book. I wasn't very interested in the end of the book.

Overall:
I'm not really into the political aspect.
