"The authors hit all the right notes in this funny, smart,
emotional tale." -- Library Journal, starred review
"A heartfelt exploration of a life lived in the spotlight, THE
ROYAL WE balances dishy decadence with an honest look at the
sacrifices required to stay princess to Prince Charming."--Courtney
Maum, author of I Am Having So Much Fun Here Without You
"A joy from start to finish. THE ROYAL WE is that rare novel that
makes you think, makes you cry, and is such fun to read that you'll
want to clear your schedule until you've turned the final page. But
be warned--Cocks and Morgan have created a world so rich, a romance
so compelling, and characters so funny and alive, that you'll be
terribly sad to see them go."--J. Courtney Sullivan, New York Times
bestselling author of The Engagements and Maine
"An entertaining read-but also a sharp critique of how we treat
celebrities and what happens to people always in the paparazzi
glare . . . Cocks and Morgan also know that daydreams should stay
daydreams because the reality is much harsher. That's what elevates
The Royal We from just a good beach book to a beach book with a
message--while remaining entertaining enough to keep your butt in
your beach chair."--Philadelphia Inquirer
"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
selfdiscovery." -- RT Book Reviews
"Cute, well-written, and perfect for summer . . . I loved it." --
Buzzfeed.com
"Cute, well-written, and perfect for summer. . . . I loved
it."--Buzzfeed, "29 Books You Should Definitely Bring to the Beach
This Summer"
"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
"Hysterical."--Entertainment Weekly, "The Must List"
"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
"Pages of biting humor and breathtaking glamour rewrite a fairy
tale into something more satisfying than a stack of
tabloids."--Kirkus
"Readers should prepare to lose their hearts to THE ROYAL WE, a
loving satire that is scandalously funny and wonderfully romantic."
--Bookpage
"Real life inspirations loom large and small and Cocks and Morgan
cleverly poke fun at the more ridiculous elements of British high
society."--The Washington Post
"Royal watchers and chick-lit fans alike will delight in this
sparkling tale. Pure fun."--Publishers Weekly
"Smart, funny . . . [Cocks and Morgan] write like the pros they've
become."--Janet Maslin, The 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
"The perfect summer read . . . a confection of a tale, but a
satisfying one, a romantic romp carried by Cocks and Morgan's
storytelling."--Metro (Canada)
"THE ROYAL WE is as engrossing and deeply satisfying as any royal
wedding documentary, and it's a thousand times more fun, from the
fairy tale to the inevitable foibles. You will want Bex Porter to
be your best friend. You will feel the same way about Cocks and
Morgan, who are warm, witty, hilarious, and moving in their
depiction of a very complicated relationship indeed."--Jen Doll,
author of Save the Date
"THE ROYAL WE is full of love and humor, and delicious in too many
ways to mention in one little blurb. I read this novel as quickly
as I could, relishing any few minutes I had to turn back to its
pages. An absolute delight."--Emma Straub, New York
Times-bestselling author of The Vacationers
"Underneath the frothy exterior is sharp look at the clash between
modern women and the ways they are portrayed. It's not a fairy
tale, but that doesn't mean it's not a great story." -- The
Millions
