This month's read is Red\, White and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston
\nFirst Son Al ex Claremont-Diaz is the closest thing to a prince this side of the Atlant ic. With his intrepid sister and the Veep&rsquo\;s genius granddaughter\, they&rsquo\;re the White House Trio\, a beautiful millennial marketing str ategy for his mother\, President Ellen Claremont. International socialite duties do have downsides&mdash\;namely\, when photos of a confrontation wi th his longtime nemesis Prince Henry at a royal wedding leak to the tabloi ds and threaten American/British relations.
\nThe plan for damage co ntrol: staging a fake friendship between the First Son and the Prince. Ale x is busy enough handling his mother&rsquo\;s bloodthirsty opponents and h is own political ambitions without an uptight royal slowing him down. But beneath Henry&rsquo\;s Prince Charming veneer\, there&rsquo\;s a soft-hear ted eccentric with a dry sense of humor and more than one ghost haunting h im.
\nAs President Claremont kicks off her reelection bid\, Alex fin ds himself hurtling into a secret relationship with Henry that could derai l the campaign and upend two nations. And Henry throws everything into que stion for Alex\, an impulsive\, charming guy who thought he knew everythin g: What is worth the sacrifice? How do you do all the good you can do? And \, most importantly\, how will history remember you?
