I had a lot of fun reading the sequel of TOKYO EVER AFTER. While I found this super cute, I enjoyed TOKYO EVER AFTER just ever so slightly more. Without giving away any spoilers, I loved the love triangle and the further development of Izumi’s relationship with her parents.
If you haven’t read TOKYO EVER AFTER yet, I highly recommend it! It’s an excellent, slightly more modern retelling of The Princess Diaries with current teenage challenges set in Japan. If you are a fan of all things royal, you will definitely enjoy it. And Netflix, where is the show? This book needs one!
