Nobody in Particular

Sophie Gonzales

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Young Royals meets The Prince and Me when a disgraced princess falls for a new student at their all-girls boarding school, but the two must hide their forbidden love at all costs. Princess Rosemary of Henland can’t afford distractions. She’s working tirelessly to repair her image following a scandal that lost the trust of both her country and her best friend. Unfortunately, when a beautiful and funny new student joins her boarding school, Rose finds herself quite distracted indeed. Attending Bramppath College on a music scholarship, talented pianist Danni expects to be an outcast amongst the wealthy children of the elite, but she is pleasantly surprised to be taken in by the ex-best friend of the princess. The more Danni gets to know her new classmates, the more intrigued she becomes by Rose. When somebody sees something they shouldn’t and rumors circulate throughout Henland, Rose and Danni must either find a way to deflect the ever-increasing eyes on their relationship, or end it altogether. Because one thing is clear: if Rose’s fragile reputation takes any more hits, the palace will do whatever they must to separate Rose and Danni. Forever.

    "It's an odd and wonderful thing, to barely dare to hope you might be tolerated as you are, only to find out the real you is beloved the way the false you never was."


    What am I going to do? Dislike a book about the importance of being true to yourself, hope, and love? Let's be serious here. Nobody in Particular is such a perfect YA romance with just the right amount of humous, fleshed-out characters, a minor yet significant suspense plot line, and interesting relationships, both platonic and not.

    The boarding school setting sits genuinely so well with me. That, the fast pacing of the story, and the descriptions of emotion had me read this in one sitting-- and definitely past my established bedtime.

    I also really enjoyed Sophie Gonzales' other novel, Never Ever Getting Back Together-- so no part of me was surprised that I really did enjoy this one. This book is highly recommended for those who enjoyed Red, White, and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston, Her Royal Highness by Rachel Hawkins, and Flip the Script by Lyla Lee. Gonzales offers a standard trope in Nobody in Particular, but does so excellently.

    Thank you to NetGalley and Wednesday Books for providing an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.
