Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston
4.0
a solid four star read.
i must say, the ending was kind of predictable as to the re-election of president claremont, but i really liked the outcome.
however, at some parts of the story i was left confused, where are they? how tf did they get a bed in wimbledon? until i realized that they were at the palace. or in the very last scenes where i was not quite sure if they were in texas or in dc.
besides all that and considering these for my rating, i’ve come to a conclusion of four stars.
the book picks up on the issues of sexuality and politics - the fright of coming out and what coming out will have an impact on their political status (and of course the presidential election) as well as the image of the royal family in the united kingdom.
plus: i really liked and loved the characters from time to time - the plot twist of the engagement as well as the reveal of shaan being zahra’s fiancé? hit me like a truck, and i frickin’ loved it!
but also the character development of henry and alex, as well as the people all around them. the accepting and support (if we don’t talk about queen mary oops)

SPY×FAMILY 1 by 遠藤達哉
5.0
I really liked this Manga! I will continue to buy the next volumes and as the Anime just aired I will watch that as well!
I really love how their ‘family’ dynamics work and how they slowly find their places in said family. Also, Anya is very cute (and Loid very very attractive, ngl) but also hilarious and a great character!

3.5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I must say I didn’t really like how TikTok, Snapchat and basically modern 'Gen Z' stuff was included in here, and there was one scene I particularly disliked as it reminded me very much of a scene straight outta Wattpad - however, this is a thing I can look over of and I loved the characters falling-in-love development and especially the ending!!
