Mia me désespère autant qu'elle me fait rire et Michael est absolument adorable. Je comprends même pas qu'elle puisse douter de lui une seule seconde. Bref, ils sont super mignons tous les deux.
Still great. I can’t believe I forgot how big a deal French kissing was. I’ve become a jaded adult.

📚#11 in My Meg Cabot Read Through
The fourth entry in The Princess Diaries has some issues with the narrative, but is still a good follow-up to previous entry Princess in Love.
In Princess in Waiting, we find our Princess Mia spending her winter break in Genovia. Of course, it's not a vacation and Mia's schedule is full of endless meetings. Not to mention, Mia is counting down the days until she gets to see her boyfriend Michael Moscovitz again. Halfway through the book, Mia finally returns to New York City. Michael plans their first date, but Grandmère is making her attend some ball. Mia tries to get out of it, being scared that Michael will break up with her if she cancels their date.
Mia's more annoying side starts to show itself in this book. We've always known she's insecure, based on how she describes her appearance. But here, it shows how Mia can be insecure in a relationship. While it's normal feelings for a teenage girl, it becomes a tad grating for the reader. They've only been dating for less than a month after all! Thankfully, Mia's insecurity is described in a funny way or the book would've been unbearable at times.
The book introduces another distant cousin of Mia's, Prince René. He's basically just a typical spoiled playboy, which makes him boring to me. At least, he helps Mia at the end. And it's majorly gross that Grandmère tries to set up her fourteen-year-old granddaughter with this man who's also her cousin! It's not 1850, grandma!!
While I had fun reading, I think the book doesn't stand too well on its own. Meaning, I only think it's good because it's another Princess Diaries book. The characters are the same as usual with Mia becoming slightly more annoying and Grandmère taking two steps back in character development. Mia's parents are MIA for most of the book. Well, at least Lilly is not grating on my nerves. Anyway, a good book but will likely become lost in my thoughts of the series as a whole.
