Week 26 Review: Her Royal Highness

From Goodreads:
Millie Quint is devastated when she discovers that her sort-of-best friend/sort-of-girlfriend has been kissing someone else. And because Millie cannot stand the thought of confronting her ex every day, she decides to apply for scholarships to boarding schools . . . the farther from Houston the better.

Millie can't believe her luck when she's accepted into one of the world's most exclusive schools, located in the rolling highlands of Scotland. Everything about Scotland is different: the country is misty and green; the school is gorgeous, and the students think Americans are cute.

The only problem: Mille's roommate Flora is a total princess.

She's also an actual princess. Of Scotland.

At first, the girls can barely stand each other--Flora is both high-class and high-key--but before Millie knows it, she has another sort-of-best-friend/sort-of-girlfriend. Even though Princess Flora could be a new chapter in her love life, Millie knows the chances of happily ever afters are slim . . . after all, real life isn't a fairy tale . . . or is it?

My Review:
I had such a fantastic time reading this book! I loved the first and I was really looking forward to it, and I did have such a great time with it! There was such great humour, and I just loved the set up at this boarding school, and watching these two fall in love!

I can totally understand why Millie wants to go to this school besides being in Scotland and that it's a prestigious school. Because this girl who she had feelings for, that they were kinda friends, kinda girlfriends, is now dating someone else. I would want to get out of that situation! 

The dynamic between Millie and Flora was so fantastic! Because Flora is pretty used to sycophants, and that does not describe Millie. I absolutely loved their banter, there was so much fun banter, and of course I loved watching them fall in love! 

Of course I wanted more of a ending, I always do, to see the characters happy. I loved the ending and where we left them and how they got there, I just would like more of the time at the end. But it was a good book and I really enjoyed it! 

This was a fantastic read and I can't wait to read more by Rachel Hawkins!
