Spoiler alert that this review will contain minor spoilers for Tokyo Ever After, aka this is your sign to pick up that book if you haven’t already. If you love Katharine McGee’s American Royals series, then you must read Tokyo Ever After & its recently released sequel, Tokyo Dreaming.

Which means upping her newly acquired princess game.īut at what cost? Izumi will do anything to help her parents achieve their happily ever after, but what if playing the perfect princess means sacrificing her own? Will she find a way to forge her own path and follow her heart?įun fact about me: one of my first ever YA series was Meg Cabot’s Princess Diaries series – I think I got through the first few books in fourth or fifth grade until the books got a little too mature for me at the time. At the threat of everything falling apart, Izumi vows to do whatever it takes to help win over the council. And on top of it all, her bodyguard turned boyfriend makes a shocking decision about their relationship. The Imperial Household Council refuses to approve the marriage citing concerns about Izumi and her mother’s lack of pedigree. Her parents’ engagement hits a brick wall.

Now, she’s overcome conniving cousins, salacious press, and an imperial scandal to finally find a place she belongs.
