Book Review: A Royal Pain by Rhys Bowen

 

A Royal Pain by Rhys Bowen - 3.5 Stars (Book 2 in Her Royal Spyness Series)

This series is always a fun time. While some of the sexual innuendos can be a bit much for me at times from her friend Belinda, I still recommend this as a fun British mystery series! Honestly, what Belinda is saying does usually make me laugh but I would just rather not have those bits at times. 

In this one, Lady Georgiana, 34th in line to the throne, has nothing to serve her Bavarian princess houseguest....even though the Queen of England has requested for her to entertain her for a week. Someone ends up murdered in a bookshop, among other murder mysteries taking place in this story, and all eyes point to Georgiana and her new houseguest. 

This one was so much fun and I look forward to the next one. The pacing can be a bit slow sometimes, but it's always fun to sit with our characters throughout the story and see what they get up to and what commentary they provide.

Content: There is a scene involving attempted sexual assault in this but it was brief toward the end. Again, like I said there is some sexual innuendos sometimes but it overall doesn't kill the story when they are mentioned. Just like to mention this so others are aware and can make their own decision to read these or not. I don't think it's over the top honestly, just sometimes annoying and would rather it not be there.
