Day’s YA – RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE

Now that it’s officially summer, I present to you the Ultimate Beach Read.

RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE by Casey McQuiston
9781250316776
Available now from St. Martin’s Griffin
New Adult

Alex Claremont-Diaz is American royalty. He’s the son of the first female president and rules the White House gossip ring with his sister June and the VP’s granddaughter, Nora .

Henry is actual royalty. As the Prince of Wales, he is the golden boy of the British Isles . . . and Alex’s #1 enemy.

When photos of a major confrontation are leaked to the press, Alex and Henry are forced into a fake friendship. To their scheming PR teams, the plan is foolproof-Alex and Henry will attend functions together, pose for photos, and smile, smile, smile. But what happens when sworn enemies fall in love? Could a secret romance lead to a scandal of international proportions?

I know this one isn’t technically YA, but I just couldn’t resist sharing this fun and sexy New Adult romance with you. Anyone who has heard me talk about books at all recently has heard me gush about RED, WHITE & ROYAL BLUE. This book is like getting a big hug from your best friend-it’s comforting and weird and hopeful and queer AF (which, incidentally, also describes my best friend).

Alex and Henry are the celebrity couple we need in this world and their relationship is chock full of wit and charm. BUT our dynamic duo are not the only shining stars! Every single character is complete and delightful (Caring and protective June! Brilliant and hilarious Nora! Bizarre and generous Pez! I could go on…).

THE ROYAL WE meets THE GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE TO VICE AND VIRTUE, this book has something for everyone-the romance lovers, the politics junkies, the history buffs, the comedy enthusiasts-it’s all there. Believe me, you’re going to want to pick this one up ASAP.

Happy reading!
<3 Emily
