Book Review | American Royals by Katharine McGee

09.03.2019 by Kari // Leave a Comment

americanroyals***Disclaimer: I received a free early access copy of American Royals by Katharine McGee from NetGalley through Random House Children’s for review purposes. Thank you so much for opportunity.

I really love a good drama. Is it a guilty pleasure? Maybe, but I definitely don’t feel guilty about it so it shouldn’t be classified as such.

Shows like Gossip Girl and Dynasty always hook me in. Rich people and their intricate problems! But they’re just like everyone else, right?

I’m a fan of The Thousandth Floor, so when I heard Katharine McGee was coming out with this, I knew I had to read it.
