Her Royal Highness by Rachel Hawkins
3.0
lighthearted relaxing fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

In spite of the fact that I really loved Millie and Flora's dynamic and that their growing relationship was what kept me going throughout the whole book, this ended up being just okay. All of the characters - except maybe Flora - felt very one-dimensional and not properly developed, the ending felt very rushed, and I didn't really connect to any of it as much as I wished I would've. 

Had I read this when I was younger, I definitely feel like I would've liked it more! But for now, this will remain a middle-of-the-road, quick and easy read that I did enjoy parts of, but that I don't see myself reaching for again.
