Rating:  Summary: NOT FOR YOUNG ADULTS. Review: The content of this book deals with Adult problems. To say this book is recommended for a Young Adult is missleading. I would not recommend this book to any reader under the age of 17 years. I bought this book as gift for my daughter of 13 years and found it to be not appropriat. Very Dissappointed.
Rating:  Summary: Princess in the Spotlight Review: Princess in the Spotlight was such a good read, I read it in one day. It's better than the first Princess Diaries. Meg Cabot creates such a vivid American/Genovian princess, it's hard not to like her, despite her much complaints. Princess in Love will definitely rock!!!
Rating:  Summary: Great! Review: It may not ever happen but this book sure is fun!it tells just what every kid wants to be told.yuo are a princess!this is a funny comical book for all ages.
Rating:  Summary: Better than "The Princess Diaries" Review: This book is more bittersweet and realistic than volume 1 because this focuses a little more on Mia's personal life than her royal life. I loved this book but recommend it only if you're over 12.
Rating:  Summary: Great Sequel!! Review: Fifteen-year-old Mia Thermopolis is just trying to stay normal...like she ever will be again. In this contiunation of her last diary Mia is just settling down from the aftershocks of getting the news that she is the lone heir to the throne of Genovia, a small European country. However she isn't done with shocks yet. (...)The second diary of Mia was another hit for me and should be for anyone who liked the first one. However I think the first one was just a tiny bit better than this one! I am just really attracted to Mia's sassy humor and all the normal teenage problems she gets. (Such as boys, her changing body, popularity, and school) Another great diary from Mia. Can't wait for her next one! Hope she and Micheal get together:)
Rating:  Summary: A little bit dissapointed Review: I am a bit dissapointed in this book. My favorite thing about the first Princess Diaries book it that Mia seemed like a very normal girl, and the book, even with her being a princess, seemed very realistic. It seemed like it was a real girl's diary. The second book, even though it's good, does not have that same realistic quality. It is a bit more contrived, with her cousin becoming a model, her grandmother inviting Donald Trump and a bunch of models to her mother's wedding, and Martha Stewart whipping up a Glinda costume for Mia. All in all, it is a dissapointing sequel.
Rating:  Summary: Read it in one day! Review: I loved this second book in THE PRINCESS DIARIES series so much that I read it all in one day! It's very hilarious and just a wonderful book. In the second "diary", Mia tells how her life just keeps getting worse and worse a month after she finds out she is heir to the throne of that small European country, Geonvia. It's bad enough that Mia's mother has been dating her algebra teacher for the past month. But now Mia's mother confesses that she is pregnant with his kid and they are getting married! Then Mia receives a letter from a "secret admirer" from her school telling her that he's loved her even before he found out she was a princess...which gets Mia guessing who it could be (hoping that it's her best friend's older brother, Michael - who seems to have an interest in her), and whether or not her father has secretly bethrolled her to some other prince she doesn't even know! While all this is happening, Grandmere insists that she get this interview from some famous interviewer and Mia ends up spilling a lot of stuff about what goes on in her school - and making some of the students angry at her, especially her best friend, Lilly. Then Grandmere tries to turn her mother's wedding into this huge giant glamerous one with a ton of celebrities even though her mother and algebra teacher only wanted a very small one. Even Lilly ends up falling for Mia's cousin, Hank, when she helps him get a contract for being an underwear model! IN THE SPOTLIGHT is full of surprises and laughs. It's a great teen novel and it is written in diary form so you really get an insight of Mia's life as a princess. The book is a fabulous sequel to the first, which I loved as well. I am hoping that Meg Cabot writes a third novel to this awesome series and if she does, then I will definitely read it. If you've read THE PRINCESS DIARIES (and enjoyed it), then I highly recommend IN THE SPOTLIGHT. This book is great! :-)
Rating:  Summary: Even better than the first one... Review: This sequel was even more hilarious than the first book... Mia is so wonderfully out-of-it at times that you just want to scream at her, which is a great part of the book. Her feelings about her mother made me laugh outloud, and I love that she's not gorgeous like some of the heroines of books you read--it makes me feel like I could be her. Her journals will make you laugh, and are a happy series of books that are absolutely perfect for those days when nothing seems to be going right.
Rating:  Summary: THE BEST!!!!!!! :o) :o) :o) Review: OH WOW, THESE ARE THE BEST TWO BOOKS I HAVE EVER READ! THIS BOOK TOTALLY RELATES TO ME, AND THE NORMAL TEENAGE THINGS THAT GO ON IN LIFE: EXCEPT MY MOM ISN'T PREGNANT WITH MY ALGEBRA TEACHER :o) THANK GOD FOR THAT...ANYWAYS, ITS JUST AS GOOD AS THE FIRST BOOK, AND I JUST HAVE TO SAY, MEG CABOT, U ARE SOOO GOOD AT WRITING THESE LAST TWO BOOKS AND I'M SOOO EXCITED TO HEAR ABOUT A THIRD ONE!!!!! PLEZE GUYZ, U HAVE TO GET THIS BOOK, WETHER YOU'RE MIDDLE AGED BUYING IT FOR YOUR CHILD, OR A CHILD BUYING IT FOR YOUR PARENTS! ITS A GREAT BOOK, AND I CAN'T RATE IT ANY LOWER THAN FIVE STARZ!
Rating:  Summary: The hilarious sequel to The Princess Diaries. Review: Mia Thermopolis does not have an easy life. She's the princess of Genovia, her mother is married to her Algebra teacher, and her rival Lana didn't get any better. And someone out there has been sending her letters -- someone who won't say who he is -- and the mystery deepens as Mia tries to figure out who the secret admirer is. But things go awry for her when she reveals a secret over the air -- a big family secret. But it seems that more mischief is about to follow, because Mia is about to go through a lot more than she thinks. Is her high school life ruined forever? The Princess Diaries Volume II: Princess In The Spotlight is a hilarious and unfailingly funny sequel to Meg Cabot's The Princess Diaries, and was a lot more enjoyable than its predeccor. I can't wait for the third volume to be released.
