Royal We (Cocks) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
Smart, funny.... [Cocks and Morgan] write like the pros they've become.
Janet Maslin - New York Times


The characters should all be familiar: the heir to the British throne, his mischievous younger brother, his granny and the pretty commoner he meets in college. But in this version by bloggers Cocks and Morgan (a.k.a. the Fug Girls), the girl is American. Nick and Bex's love story is so fun and dishy, you'll hope for a sequel—with royal babies.
People


In the grand tradition of Curtis Sittenfeld's American Wife . . . A breezy, juicy novel that's like The Princess Diaries with fewer made-up countries and more sex-the kind of book you can imagine Pippa sneaking into Kensington Palace.
Entertainment Weekly


Every bit as engrossing as the real Kate and Will.... The pages turn as easily as a tabloid feature on the royal couple-and you'll end up just as obsessed with Bex and Nick as you already are with Wills and Kate.
Glamour


Cocks and Morgan tackled their first dip into mainstream fiction for adults and nailed it. The Royal We is a wonderful tale of young love, peppered with animated characters, difficult hardships and self-discovery
Romance Times Book Reviews

Publishers Weekly


(Starred review.) The authors hit all the right notes in this funny, smart, emotional tale that will definitely appeal to fans of Jojo Moyes.
Library Journal


[R]oyal watchers will appreciate the craftsmanship that went into fitting the fictional Lyons dynasty into the timeline of the existing monarchy. Some of the details are invented while others are tweaked.... Pages of biting humor and breathtaking glamour rewrite a fairy tale into something more satisfying than a stack of tabloids.
