"Truly, Madly, Royally" by Debbie Rigaud was a very cute, very easy read. I've been in a reading slump all month (partially due to high expectations, partially due to a low depression-related slump), but this book was just the right amount of fluff and non-complicated-ness and royalty.
["Fiercely independent and smart, Zora Emerson wants to change the world. She's excited to be attending a prestigious summer program, even if she feels out of place among her privileged, mostly white classmates.
So she's definitely not expecting to feel a connection to Owen, who's an actual prince of an island off the coast of England. But Owen is funny, charming...and undeniably cute. Zora can't ignore the chemistry between them.
When Owen invites Zora to be his date at his big brother's big royal wedding, Zora is suddenly thrust into the spotlight, along with her family and friends. Everyone is talking about her, in real life and online, and while Owen is used to the scrutiny, Zora's not sure it's something she can live with.
Can she maintain her sense of self while moving between two very different worlds? And can her feelings for Owen survive and thrive in the midst of the crazy?"]
POC Zora was an Icon. She was fierce and independent and stood up for those who couldn't, all the while pioneering in her community and trying to make the world brighter/better.
The princely aspect helped to inspire me a bit with my current WIP (queer cinderella) with the formal-talk and the accents and the duties (and the castles).
Any other books to help me out of this reading slump?
Any other books that might inspire some princely /slash/ royal-ness??
