THIS BOOK WAS PERFECT!!!!
This book was everything I expected and more! It takes place 8 years after the last princess diaries book ([b:Forever Princess|3474186|Forever Princess (The Princess Diaries, #10)|Meg Cabot|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1347807104s/3474186.jpg|3515492]) so all the characters are all grown up! I loved how we got a little peak into the lives of all the minor characters from the series. (Even Paulo and Sebastiano!)
While every character has changed or matured (especially Mia) they're still the same funny characters that I fell in love with years ago. Mia is still very dramatic, Lily is still stubborn, Tina is still a hopeless romantic, and Michael is still very, very hot. And Grandmère! She is so funny! She made me laugh almost every time that she opened her mouth.
The only problem that I had with this book is that it really makes me want another one! I want more Mia Thermopolis! Is that too much to ask? If you haven't read this book (or the series) go and read them. Now. You won't regret it :)

I'm so sad it's over!!!! I loved reading this series. It was such a fun ride. This book was written as a bridge to her new series, The Tales of a Middle School Princess (I think). I had a good time reading it and my fingers are crossed that maybe just maybe she will continue with the series. I highly recommend this series if you want to read something super fun and light.
4.5 Stars
This story was so sweet. Reading it just made me feel extremely happy and extremely nostalgic. It reminded me of all the other Princess Diaries books I read when I was in primary school. Royal Wedding was definitely more mature than the other books, but it still had the same distinct feel.
I have never understood how Mia can update her diary so frequently. I could never update my diary so diligently (partly because I keep on forgetting to). How does she do it?! After reading this book, I still don't understand.
As always, I loved reading about Mia and her friends. The set of characters in this book is diverse, and Cabot presents them in a way that makes them very real. They have flaws, they have problems, they have the same worries that many people do in real life. Since this book is written in a diary format (which includes text messages), it allows for a more in depth exploration of Mia's characteristics, thoughts, and her take on the personality of others.
Cabot brought back the old set of characters- all of whom I love reading about. Grandmère is still the same old Grandmère. Michael is still very sweet. Lilly is still very Lilly. She also added new, fantastic characters. Olivia is so endearing, and I loved the relationship between Olivia and Mia's dad.
Whilst reading Mia's diary, I could tell that Mia had matured a lot. She is much more considerate. For example, she begins to look at her own situation from other people's point of view. Despite how she is constantly mobbed by the paparazzi, she knows that she is much more fortunate than many other people on the planet. By the end of the book, she is able to accept and embrace her life, or as Paolo would put it, her diamond shoes.
There are also lots of twists in this book, and some where a bit of a disappointment. For example, the reveal of the true identity of RoyalRabbleRouser was a total let down. There were also other twists that I loved, even if they weren't very original.
Like the other Princess Diaries books, this book is packed with humour. At some points, I couldn't stop laughing! I loved this passage:
I couldn't stop laughing at this one:
Oh Lana:
This book was wonderful, and I would most certainly read it again!
A bride is taking a journey, a magical journey toward a future of happiness and joy, and even though we aren't taking that journey with her, we want to vicariously enjoy the ride."

"So you got to decide, Principessa, what are you going to do, put on your diamond shows and go to the dance? Or take them off and stay home? I know what I would do if someone give me diamond shows. I would go to the dance and I would never stop dancing until my feet fell off."

Grandmère's always insisting that the secret to aging gracefully is remaining well hydrated, but I sometimes wonder if this isn't actually the secret to life itself.
I couldn't stop laughing at this one:
"According to the Inside Edition, the reason we're getting married in such a rush is because you're carrying my unborn twins. Congratulations. At least they're not Prince Harry's this time."
Oh Lana:
"Surprise, bitch!" Lana said as my jaw dropped.
This book was wonderful, and I would most certainly read it again!
Sweet, silly, and just what you'd want to read if you were a fan of The Princess Diaries. There are more than enough references to those books to make any fan happy!
This was everything I wanted in a reboot. So pleased with the outcome.
Perfection, although I would expect nothing less from Meg Cabot. I can't wait for the next one!
I never read the series as a kid, just saw the movies but I thought I'd like Mia much more than I did in this. She's very... entitled and not as down to earth as she thinks she is. I also thought it read very similar to the middle grade series spin off that focuses on Mia's half sister, Olivia. Which was disappointing since this is suppose to be an adult book. Still, the overall story is cute and who doesn't want to get a behind the scenes look at what it means to be a royal? 3/5
