Review: ‘Red, White & Royal Blue’ by Casey McQuiston

Red, White and Royal Blue is probably one of the most hyped summer books, and for me it did not disappoint!

This love story about the son of the (female!) President of the United States and the Prince of England was pure fun; the perfect summer read. And while it was a mostly a light, fun romance, it also didn’t shy away from the challenges that such a relationship would present.

I really enjoyed the banter between Alex and Henry and rooted for them from the start, even if I found Alex a tad bit annoying in the beginning. (A little too much “woe is me, life is hard.”) It also was a little bit long, but was an easy read that kept me wanting to know what the future held for these star-crossed lovers.

I definitely shed a few tears and also found myself chucking now and then at McQuiston’s witty writing.

I highly recommend this one!

Four and a half stars out of five.
