Truly Madly Royally by Debbie Rigaud
5.0
I enjoyed this book so, so so much!
Zora is inspirational and adorable, and Owen is amazing.
What I loved about this book was that it wasn't too angsty (we all know YA can get pretty dang angsty). It was a love story, but with a prince who was considerate, thoughtful, and had the most adorable crush, and a girl who wore natural hair and was unapologetically black, whose family and friends loved her fiercely, and who was making a difference in her community.
This book will be perfect for pre-teen Black girls who are desiring to see themselves in a fluffy, fun book. More rom-coms starring girls of color, please and thank you!
