Five
Royal Stars
Book
Blurb:
“Is
America ready for its first queen?
Power
is intoxicating. Like first love, it can leave you breathless. Princess
Beatrice was born with it. Princess Samantha was born with less. Some, like
Nina Gonzalez, are pulled into it. And a few will claw their way in. Ahem,
we're looking at you Daphne Deighton.
As
America adjusts to the idea of a queen on the throne, Beatrice grapples with
everything she lost when she gained the ultimate crown. Samantha is busy living
up to her "party princess" persona...and maybe adding a party prince
by her side. Nina is trying to avoid the palace--and Prince Jefferson--at all
costs. And a dangerous secret threatens to undo all of Daphne's carefully laid
"marry Prince Jefferson" plans.”
Review:
I
fell for this series from the very beginning of ‘American Royals’ and will
gladly read anything and everything Ms. McGee ever writes.
Ms.
McGee provides a very well-thought-out alternate history, fascinating plot, and
complex and fleshed out characters who are (mostly) easy to root for and care
about. Even the villains have understandable motives, though their choices were
in poor taste.
All
our beloved narrators and characters are back, with some new secondary characters
thrown in the mix. Each narrating
character has room to grow and change, and it’s really great to watch those who
take advantage of this. McGee keeps us
on our toes; this series is anything but predictable.
This
is highly recommended clean YA reading for fans of 'Gossip Girl' and Katherine
McGee's 'The Thousandth Floor' trilogy. ‘Majesty’
is a fabulous follow-up to 'American Royals'! Can't wait to get my hands on the next
installment.
