Royally Crushed Royally Jacked; Spin Control; Do Over (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
Over all, I really liked this three-in-one-book. There were a couple of things that bugged me, however, (but when isn't there?)First, it's Lake Braddock SECONDARY School. Not high school. I'm just saying. It was kinda weird reading a book that takes place in my home town... I giggled when she talked about Fair Oaks Mall.Second, Georg wouldn't be playing soccer... It'd be futbol, he lives in Europe.Third, her friends kinda annoyed me in reference to David. I mean, they're 15 and who cares. Fourth, they sure started saying "I love you" soon! It was less than a month! Max! Oh well. Haters gunna hate.Lastly, I was getting an "all conservatives must hate gays" vibe. Which isn't true. That kinda bothered me the most. But other than that, I really enjoyed it! I totally recommend it for a cute, quick read. You have to read all three though. Or it won't make sense. Just saying. When I first saw the book title, I totally thought it was going to hurt my heart. Once I started reading it, I realized that I was soo wrong and completely enjoyed the story.It starts off with Valerie getting her life turned upside down when her perfectly matched parents tell her that they are getting divorced. I won't say why, as you'll find out in the first chapter. It deals with a controversial subject, but the way it's introduced makes you laugh and feel what Valerie is feeling.Since her father has a pretty cool job working in the White House with the president, the situation with the divorce garners a transfer to a tiny unknown town in Germany where you'll finally see where "Royally" comes from. I have never read a more 'handsome' Prince Georg. (yes, it's spelled correctly)Valerie goes on a journey to grow up from her age fifteen and realize that she needs to make decisions for herself and start living as her friends are all back in Virginia. It's an amazing story with self acceptance, and acceptance overall.Sometimes just thinking and talking about what is bugging you makes all the difference. It's a YA book as the characters are in high school, but I think that anyone who likes the fairy-tale idea with a prince would enjoy the read.P.S- I think my fave part is when a "separation" is no more and when certain best friends from Virginia come to the rescue for Valerie all in Germany. So awesome. :)Stopping now before I get repetitive.

I just read it because I, myself, wanna be a prince's girl. :)

Hardly any plot. Much too juvenile for my taste.

Amazing book but the ending was disappointing
