In my mind, there are different kinds of 'whipped'.
There's the adorable, squeal-inducing kind then there's mushy, annoying, eyeroll-deserving kind. Sadly or more like predictably, Reed Royal in Broken Prince was the latter kind of 'whipped'.
If you thought Paper Princess was over-the-top, you haven't seen nothing yet...
/// I still cannot believe this series was being marketed as YA. What is the point of having 'demographic level/rating'? If you're not going to use it?? Yeah YA my ass. ///
'Uninteresting' is a more generous description for this book but 'a waste of time' is a more accurate one.

this review gives me life. finally people who see what this series really is
Aw. I'm sorry you didn't like this. I loved this series and I really can't explain why. lol. I hope your next book is better! :)
@Lona - Thanks glad to hear that!! (Although you are more generous that I was with your 2 stars lol!)
Thanks Amber, this one was awful wasn't it? I mean I gave the first book 3 stars so I could ignore A LOT in NA books but this one still really bugged me.

I actually enjoyed this one, more or less. But I agree that this is in no way YA, I can't believe it was marketed that way!
@Alexia - it's nice if you enjoyed it! Truth be told I didn't mind the first one but this one turned soggy and too mushy for me lol. YES how can anyone say with a straight face that this is YA is beyond me!
Oh no Lona, please I was just teasing ya hahaha ;)
@lacy - thank you dear I hope so too 🤞🏻
Yikes. Makes me glad I haven't read this yet. Lol.
LOL I hate PP so I don't even want to know what's the next level is..
You're in the clear then Aj ;) Hahaha!

rated it 1 star
Ooh Churin then you should definitely, definitely not go anywhere near this one! Save yourself girl LOL!I actually gave PP 3 stars so.... hahaha maybe you should not trust me on NA books... xD
It's fascinating enough for me to finish the book, but then the end come and suddenly it was too much drama. Ah well, one book shouldn't keep us apart Lainey!
Urg i HATED the ending!! I liked Ella up to that point but the ending really ruined her character for me. And no, one book (or SEVEN!) will not keep us apart my friend 😘
This trilogy is one of my guilty pleasures, It's not like I particularly liked this story, it was so addicting I couldn't stop. but I understand your thoughts on this.
"Whipped" is such a harsh way of putting it... lol. I'm biased when it comes to this series. I also see it as a guilty pleasure, objectively it's not all that good but it's so much fun to read.
haha so much truth in such a short review
Sorry it was a bust, this whole series has been a pain in the ass for me. Great review, though!
@ Alex - hahaha a pain in the ass is spot on alex!! Thank you girl :)

@Helen - you are absolutely right tho Helen, I know quite a few ppl who love this series purely for its guilty pleasure factor. No fouls there too! Whatever you enjoy heh? ^___^Ps. I don’t mind the first type of whipped tho... actually I love it, I think it’s adorable <3
