Rating:  Summary: More of the same Review: Meg Cabot's Princess Diaries series are really great. They're not just for teenage girls, in my opinion (I'm over the age of 20). The writing is easy to read, and genuinely funny. Mia's account of her teenage life makes you feel like you're really in the story. I liked this book, the third in the series. However, I didn't emjoy it as much as the first two. ...I like Mia's bodyguard Lars, but it's starting to feel like the same story over again for me. The books are fun to read, and the characters and Mia's antics are hilarious. I just hope that Meg Cabot keeps us hooked with the rest of the books coming out.
Rating:  Summary: Mia's Newest Challenge: The Boyfriend Review: For the first time in her life Mia (also known as Princess Amelia Mignonette Grimaldi Thermopolis Renaldo) has an actual boyfriend. In any other situation this would be a good thing but unfortunately for Mia she doesn't love her boyfriend back, in fact she doesn't even like him that much. Although no one knows it but her diary, she's in love with Michael, Lilly's brother, and has been for some time. But that's not Mia's only problem, she still has to deal with her mother's and her Algebra teacher's new marriage and her new sibling on the way. And to top it off her Princess lessons have gotten more and more complicated. Once school breaks for winter holidays Mia will be traveling to Genovia, where she will be introduced to the Genovian public for the first time on television, not something that Mia's had the greatest luck with in the past.You may be wondering how a 17-year-old upcoming senior got so hooked on a series that's very well loved by many 12-year-olds and honestly I don't know why too. I just have a thing for books of all ages (including the I Spy Picture books they so conveniently place at work whenever I get board). Princess in Love is just as good as the other books in the series (The Princess Diaries, and Princess in the Spotlight) if not better. I was hesitant on buying this book at first (I hate to buy hardcover books) but I'm glad I did. If you're a fan of the series, I highly recommend reading this. I hope the 4th book in the series, Princess in Waiting, will be just as good. It's just a shame it's not coming out until April 2003.
Rating:  Summary: Meg Cabot Has Done It Again! Review: Once again, Meg Cabot has written a great book. Out of the three Princess Diaries books, this one was definitely my favorite. Continuing on from the first and second book, Mia Thermopolis (who is going to be the new princess of Genovia), is dealing now with her mom's pregnancy and her love life. THAT'S ALL I CAN TELL YOU WITHOUT GIVING ANYTHING AWAY! Be sure to catch Meg Cabots Princess Diaries Volume III, Princess in Love. It's a great book, and it's totally worth the money. Also, be sure to read the fourth book coming soon!
Rating:  Summary: definatley the best of all three!!! Review: I loved this book! I've read "The Princess Diaries" and "Princess in the Spotlight" too but I have to say that "Princess in Love" was my favorite. If you want a book that you won't be able to put down until you finish it read this one! I couldn't stop reading it myself even though I was suffering from mayjor jet lag at the time of reading it. Mia and her friends once again come back more realistic than ever in this third novel in this GREAT series. However, I recommend you read the first two first to make this book even the more enjoyable.
Rating:  Summary: The third book in this awesome series does not disappoint! Review: This book is a wonderful gem. It chronicles the month of December for Mia, princess of Genovia. She is busy preparing to meet her people, but has a few things to resolve before she leaves New York---finals and her social life. How Mia handles stress and Lana (who is still as horrible as ever) makes for a fun, believable read. And longtime fans of the series will be VERY happy with the final diary entry. Read it!
Rating:  Summary: Wow! This book rocks! Review: This is a way awesome book! It is, so far, my favorite in the Princess Diaries Series. This book deals more with Mia and love. Mia is in love with Michael, but her boyfriend is Kenny. Also, Mia is preparing for her trip to Genovia, the country she is Princess of. This book is great, and I totally reccomend it and the other Princess Diaries books!
Rating:  Summary: A Fun Book Review: America's newest and unlikely royal, Mia Thermopolis, returns in Meg Cabot's third installment of her sucessful Princess Diaries series. In this continuing saga Mia finds herself preparing under her grandmother's continuing instruction, for her first royal visit to Genovia during her upcoming winter holiday. However, in the days prior to her departure, Mia finds herself dealing with a bunch of issues on the homefront. To start, Mia's mother and her math teacher (now her step father) are all living under the same roof. As we learned in the last book, Mia's mom and Mr. Gianni are expecting a baby. It was also revealed in the previous installment that Mia had a secret admirer, her Biology lab partner Kenny. Now, in this book, we learn Mia and Kenny are considered an item. Just one problem. Mia doesn't really like Kenny as a boyfriend. She's secretly pining away for her best friend's older brother, Michael. Mia doesn't know what to do. If you liked either of the first two Princess Diaries books, you will definetly love this one as well. Mia's dialouge with her diary and her feelings of confusion as she tries to figure out what to do with her romantic relationships are relatable to anyone who has been or is a teenager.
Rating:  Summary: Perfect Ending Review: I love happy ending and all the mushy romantic stuff. I was always disappointed that Mia and Michael never got together. I always felt I could really relate to Mia, and I think really any teenage girl could, so I always wanted her to get the guy, you know? Finally, the books are perfect. If you like romantic comedies you'll love this book.
Rating:  Summary: The Best Among The Three Review: There's never a dull moment in Princess Mia's life. Every page is filled with humor, fun and love. The three essentials in a girl's life. In the third attachment of the fabulous best-selling series, Mia will finally face her long-time crush, Michael who is her best friend's older brother and that makes thing a little more COMPLICATED!... NEWAY, if you have not own this book yet, go out and grab one! You'll be giving yourself a good treat! You'll end your reading feeling much better about yourself...Thank God my name isn't as long as hers!Happy Reading!
Rating:  Summary: sigh... Review: Well, I have to admit, I did love the first two books in this series, but somehow, I felt like something was missing. I love happy endings, and when both books ended without Mia getting together with Michael, I was a little bummed. But this one, this one had it all. Humour (I found myself laughing out loud many times), tension, a great plot, and romance (and some good tips, I may add). All the dilemmas in Mia's life were hilarious and handled (mostly....) well. I felt like I could relate to her in terms of Michael and what not. And the ending was exactly to my liking.... I recomend this book to anybody who is looking for an uplifting, quick read with a fairy tale (almost...) ending. Really a very well done book!
