Honestly haven’t liked this or the last one in the series at all, and if the next one is as boring I might give up and just skip to the last book in the series.

I really enjoyed this tale of Princess Mia's further adventures. From Prom woes, to nasty best friends, to escapist dogs and striking bus boys, Mia's life is never dull. I do wish I could like Lilly's character more. I keep thinking I will probably like her better in the next book, but this book really made me upset with her again. She does not seem like a nice person and I think that Mia (and others) deserve better than the way she treats people. Perhaps LILLY needs some self-actualization! All in all though, it was a funny heart-warming tale and I'm enjoying the opportunity to pass these books along to my daughter when I've finished reading them.

*reread in 2015*

Mia continues to be dramatic and borderline annoying, Michael continues to be perfect and Lily is the worst ever. What else is new?

I'm fine. I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'M FINE

The plot of this one was probably the most ridiculous so far - really, Mia? You'll have your own senior prom someday, just calm the flip down. But of course, her inner drama is still hilarious.
