Initial Thoughts
I’m on the edge with this series. I’m liking it but I wish we could see so much more. They feel like mini stories to me so far. Nothing is really happening.
My New BFF
I think Tina is becoming a great character. I love how great of a friend she is while still also being a pretty typical teenage girl. It’s fun seeing characters like her now that I’m older. She’s hilarious and entertaining.
My Crush
No crushes in this book! Not yet anyways. I’m hoping for more down the road because I’m really not a big fan of Michael. He’s kind of weird and annoying.
Writing Style
The writing in this book is done using a diary format. It’s from Mia’s perspective and is very young. I sometimes have a hard time with it but Mia is pretty funny most of the time. She makes for a great narrator. I’m finding the characters are developing a little too slow and I’m annoyed we haven’t seen much of Genovia yet.
Closing Thoughts
I think this is a great series, especially for a younger audience. It’s not my favourite by far but I’m hoping it gets better. I wish Mia would grow up a little faster and that the books would move at a faster pace. The first five so far have all been within the same school year. I can’t wait for Mia to graduate so we can see her get more responsibilities. I’m finding the series a little slow and uneventful so far but I’m really hoping it picks up!

These books are so short it feels like nothing even happens. But this one was fun because it had Mia going to prom. Also, Michael is a pretty great love interest and Lilly continues to be the worst.

reread - Great installment of the Princess Diaries series. I wish the prom scene was a bit more descriptive but overall a great development in the life of Mia

I love that this story had Mia focusing on the prom but it also had so much more going on. I love Michael and Mia as a couple. This book was great and I really enjoyed it.
Mia being a whiny little bint all the time warms my heart for reasons I cannot explain like pls find real problems but also never change you're so funny
Best plot bar book 9 (maybe 10 but I can't remember that one), everything comes together so well almost like a Pratchett book!
Tina & Boris unlikeliest OTP ever I still remember the initial shock tiny me had over this reveal
