A review by gaylandtoo
The Rules of Royalty by Cale Dietrich

slow-paced

1.5

if i were anne hathaway, i'd sue


i usually don't give 1.5 stars. however, this is a special case. allow me to list my grievances:

1. the characters have no chemistry. how do you write a book where the two main characters have no chemistry? the only thing these boys like about each other is that they're both hot. that's it.
2. how dare you compare yourself to the princess diaries? write a shitty book, sure, but leave anne hathaway and julie andrews out of it.
3. the use of "six-pack." say something else. anything else, really.
4. jamie johnson? that's the best name you could come up with?
5. "sexy" was used in an unironic context.

i truly wish to waste no more time on this book. i only finished it because i refused to be defeated by a book so atrociously written.
