Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston

I love a sweet rom com, and this book fits the bill! Alex, the son of the president of the US, and Henry, a prince of England, navigate their feelings for one another as they quickly pass from hate to love. 

This was adorable! I have always liked the ol’ “I think this person hates me but actually they’ve been secretly in love with me” trope, and this book fits that to a T. I thought Henry was sweet and likable, and Alex was funny, if a bit too much at times. I go back and forth on whether I like reading / watching things about fictional politics because I find it boring a lot of the time, but this was fine! A bit “rah rah, THIS is what should have happened instead of Trump!”, but whatever, it was cute. Not my fave romcom I’ve read, but one that I genuinely enjoyed and was easy to breeze through.
