Current Reads 💋 American Royals by Katharine McGee Omg I’m so excited with this one. I love everything royal! Maybe In Another Life by Taylor Jenkins Reid I’m guilty about this. I only started this because of the author and because I want to make subscribing to KU worth it. 🤭 What is/are your current read/s? Any suggestions for books I can read for free on KU are welcome! 🔖 #ku #americanroyals #maybeinanotherlife #currentlyreading #kindleunlimited #bookishcanadians #bookblogger #bibliophile #bookstagramcanada #bookstagramphilippines #bookaddict #instabook #ilovebooks #bookishcommunity #booksofinstagram #bookstagramcommunity #books #bookreviewer #igreads #bookworm #readersofinstagram #booksbooksbooks #bookgram #booklover #goodreads (at Calgary, Alberta) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnx2abmJPdJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

★ What books with royals drama would you recommend? I haven’t read Prince Harry’s Spare yet (in fact I am 799th in line with one of my libraries 🥴) but I do love reading about messy drama between fictional royals, and at the top of that list is @katharinemcgee’s American Royals series. I still need to read Rivals, but secrets and lies, forbidden romance, petty differences, questions of succession, on-the-edge-of-your-seat OMG moments … these books have it all. They’re like candy for the piece of my soul that craves drama. 🙊 Have you read American Royals yet? ★ HASHTAGS // #katharinemcgee #americanroyals #penguinteen #royalsbooks #tbrcart #bookcart #bookrecs #rainbowshelf #yabooks #bookphotography #instareads #bookobsessed #booksbooksbooks #beautifulbooks #prettybooks #goodreads #bookhoarder #bookhoarder #bibliophile https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnfg9isSYZ_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Currently reading #AmericanRoyals, an alternate history chick lit novel centered on the idea of how things might have unfolded if George Washington hadn't turned down the idea of being made king of America. . . #RynReads #Book #Books #Bookstagram #Instabook #AmReading https://www.instagram.com/p/CYFVnimuKih/?utm_medium=tumblr

I am on board with the Queen Samantha Conspiracy! American Royals by Katharine McGee was SO FUN to read. I laughed, I cried, and then I cried a little more. Let's discuss America's first ROYAL FAMILY!

It began, the stories say, with a search party of sorts: a caravan of emancipated African Americans traveling up from the Deep South, looking for a place where they could embrace freedom, safety, and self-sufficiency—a haven for putting down roots and building a new life. They found it in the southern reaches of Henderson County, where they established the Happy Land, or perhaps the Kingdom of the Happy Land—accounts differ on the precise name. For decades following the Civil War, a singular communal experiment existed, and it became the stuff of legend. Chronicles of the Happy Land have proved as divergent as the paths that brought those freed slaves to their destination. Little of their venture was written down at the time, but stories added to the record decades later have helped paint a picture of how the kingdom’s residents came to their unique way of living, how they prospered, and how their saga was ultimately cast to the winds of history. Image: Serepta Davis (above left) welcomed the group of freed slaves and sold them 180 acres. (Right) Ezel Couch, shown here in a photograph from Sadie Smathers Patton’s study of the Happy Land, was brought to the kingdom in 1873 at age one. He died at his home in Hendersonville in 1961. #happyland #americanroyals #americanroyalty #avlhistory #wnchistory #hendersonvillenc (at Hendersonville, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/CI_T3b-hYbO/?igshid=ketmrk3d6xps
