Princess in Waiting (The Princess Diaries, Vol. 4)

Rating:
Summary: princess in waiting not worth the wait
Review: This book was so disappointing! After the fantastic Princess in Love, the 4th book falls flat. The first 20+ pages are boring, personality-less entries in Mia's new "date book", blandly stating the facts of her Christmas break in Genovia. The entire book focuses on one thing: Mia spends the entire time moaning and whining about how much she misses Michael, and then when she finally gets back home to him, she worries that he will dump her when she tells him that she'll have to break their first date to attend a ball. Despite all her complaining, Mia appears to be doing everything possible to push Michael away, as she read the book Jane Eyre; and actually followed her Grandmere's (who dislikes Michael, "that boy")advice not to chase boys! She won't return Michael's phone calls, barely talks to him, and than wonders why he is acting "distant"! The book lacks any of the mishaps that make Mia so funny: the big crisis in this book is that someone "stole" her laundry. Also, once again, Grandmere dupes Mia once again, making you wonder: when will Mia get a clue?

Summary: Michael Michael Michael!!!
Review: This is probably the best book in the series! The book begins in Genovia with Mia dreaming about Michael the whole time. When she gets back she sees him and her feelings start coming back. The book circles around whether Michael loves Mia as a friends or "loves loves" her. In the end she asks her if he loves he or not...and well...why spoil such a good book? When you read the whole thing you too will fall in love with Michael. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS EVER!!!
