I’m not sure if now was that right time to read a Royal Romance based on the current British Royals…

The Heir Affair by Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan aka The Fug Girls

by Leave a Comment

I think I have mentioned in numerous comment diversions and facebook threads that I came to Pajiba by way of  GoFugYourself (by way of thefashionspot, by way fansofrealitytv by way of watching america’s next top model on youtube).  Needless to say, I have  a soft spot for The Fug Girls.  I don’t read the blog anymore because I can’t with the interface, but I have read some of their books, which are breezy, light and fun (as far as I can remember them). The Heir […]

What comes next? (The Royal We #2)

The Heir Affair by Heather Cocks, Jessica Morgan

I was over the freaking moon when I was approved to review an advance copy of The Heir Affair, Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan’s sequel to The Royal We. The Royal We is one of my very favorite books. When I was sick as a dog during my final pregnancy, I would read it until I reached the end and then flip back to the first page and start again. Though The Royal We felt complete, the door was left open for a sequel if […]

For the first third of this book, I was super into it. Then things started to get a little rocky. And then the ship breached on the rocks and got all leaky. Everything eventually righted itself and the imaginary sailors plugged up all the holes or whatever, but it was too late. My goodwill had already leaked out. I did not anticipate beating that metaphor to death when I started it, but I am not going to delete it because it accurately represents how I feel […]

Bloodstains, Ballgowns, Trashing a Hotel Room

The Royal We by Heather Cocks & Jessica Morgan

A friend of mine, whenever she encounters a problem, reminds herself of the Scale of Aleppo, wherein she compares her misfortunes to those of the people trapped in the vicious civil war in Syria. Husband running late? Barely a one on the Scale of Aleppo. Boss being an asshole? A three, at most. It’s an admirable strategy. It’s also something which, I feel, it would behoove the protagonists of The Royal We to try. Twenty year old Rebecca Porter, on a gap year from studying […]

The First Half is Great

The Royal We by Heather Cocks, Jessica Morgan

I wanted to like this more than I did. It gets three stars because the front half is amazing. I’ll talk about what I didn’t like in the spoiler section. I’ve had this on my kindle for a long time, but there was always something I wanted to read more. In response to Harry and Megan’s engagement, people started bringing this book up again and I thought it would be a fun, light read. An American, Rebecca “Bex” Porter decides to do a semester abroad […]
