Review: Rules of Royalty

 


Male - Male version of The Princess Diaries.
Jamie finds out on his 17th birthday that he's a prince of a small European country. His parents were not married. His mother died years ago, leaving his guardianship to her best friend. She wanted him to grow up without the added pressure of being a royal.

Jamie agrees to a trip during the summer - to see the country and meet his new family. As he's navigating society for the first time, his father gives him the number of someone who can help.

Erik is the prince of a neighboring country who's been asked to help. He agrees. Erik is also gay, giving Jamie an extra outlet for questions when they arise.

My Thoughts: I'm the biggest fan of the Princess Diaries books, so I was super excited to read this. And it lived up. I tore through this novel. 

Yes, it has this line:

Jamie has a great family and a great group of friends. Erik's family is very strict and his grandmother, the Queen, knows everything. Jamie and Erik were both interested in each other, but it took a bit for them to admit their feeling. I love books about Royals.

Cover Thoughts: Adorable

Library Recommendation: Highly recommended for your library collection.
