I didn't enjoy these much, I never really thought I would I just wanted to hear what Harry had to say. I have a lot of empathy for Harry, but he does downplay his privilege just a little. He gets to do a lot of great things the average person in Britain only gets to dream. What he went through wasn't nice but the timing of this book isn't great.

I want to start this off by saying I have just finished this book in the last couple hours. I had such a hard time putting the book down when I had other things to do. I was reading this every chance I got. I am kicking myself for taking so long to read it.
I don’t usually get emotional over books but this book had my eyes watering at times, in public as well! But a few chapters later it had me in fits of laughter. Which considering some of the themes in these books was needed.
I love this, it was beautifully written. It was an amazing plot. Heartbreaking good. The characters are so loveable. I loved it all. I am excited to read more. I haven’t read the next book but I feel like there is a lot of clues of what comes next for the other characters in future books and I am excited to see what happens.

A cute little over the top romance. Very dramatic and cheesy.

I enjoyed this book, but it was very over-the-top dramatic and some of the main characters' actions just didn't make much sense. It just wasn't the best-written book I've ever read. However, the plot and setting are very interesting it is a mix of Beauty And The Beast and The Nutcracker. So I may read the next book when it comes out, but it won't be a priority.

I have minor issues with this book, like the sexism and Kallias not being around much. Now I do know that those details are in the book because they add to the plot, but it doesn't mean I have to like them.
However, overall I really enjoyed this book. I got sucked right into eventually, and fell in love with the characters. I enjoyed the plot because it was different.

This book was a big one, it was very long-winded and the timeline was a little confusing because it jumps around a bit. I don't completely blame the author because the British Royal family is confusing, however there was some paragraphs that took up the whole page and it was just unnecessary.
However, I did enjoy getting a little bit of insight to the Queen's life and how the people around her viewed her. Overall the book was good.

I was supposed to read this last month, but other books took priority, but I honestly wish I'd put it higher on my TBR because I really needed this light hearted romance to lighten up my mood a little. I don't have any complaints for this book, other than it being a little dramatic and over the top. But this kind of what I signed up for and I really enjoyed it for that reason.
