Thursdays with the Crown

The world feels so vibrant and alive — I wonder if the author based it on any real places or if it was entirely imagined from scratch.

I was really engaged at first, but the middle chapters seemed to take their time. Was that intentional to build character growth or world details?

It balances excitement with lighthearted moments perfectly, but I’m curious whether that was a deliberate choice to appeal to young readers' different moods.
