The Princess Diaries, Volume IV: Princess in Waiting

Rating:
Summary: A great book
Review: I think this is an awesome book! Meg Cabot is purely geinus, with her stories of Princess Mia. This book keeps you on the seat of your chair, and when you've finished, you just want more! Mia's life as a princess just keeps getting better and better in this series!

Summary: She should have stopped at book # 3
Review: When I heard a 4th princess diaries book was coming out I was pretty excited. Then I read it and found it a bit disappointing. In the beginning Mia pretty much just complains about missing Michael and worrying if he is cheating on her with a brown-eyed blue-eyed girl named Kate Bosworth (this whole Kate Bosworth thing was brought up WAY too many times throughout the entire book). Once we move beyond that, the rest of the book is okay but nothing great. I'm sorry but this book doesn't have the same wit and intelligence as the last 3 books did. Meg Cabot should have stopped and left The Princess Diaries as a trilogy.

Summary: Guess Who's Back...Back Again? Mia's Back...Tell a Friend!!
Review: In the 4th installment of the Princess Diaries Series, Mia is in Genovia, taking charge and doing what's needed to be done in the country. But then, this whole parking meter thing comes up, and she goes back to the USA. With an upcoming date with Michael, Mia is thrilled, until her grandmother tells her she is going to a Black and White Ball the same night! This book had humor and pizzaz, and I would definatly recomend it to anyone who is read the PD series!!!

Summary: HUGE and utter disappointment.
Review: This book is revolting! It has neither the spunk or sparkle that was shown in Princess in Love or the original the Princess Diaries. I was quite looking forward to the fourth book, and bought it immediately when I heard that it was out, spent most of the week reading it, and became utterly disappointed in Meg Cabot. ...

Summary: Not The Best In The Series, But Still A Winner!
Review: I currently finished all of the Princess Diaries Series. I have to say, they are one of my favorite series to read. I love the characters, the real life teenage problems, and the humor. However, I must say that book 4 was a bit disappointing. I did enjoy reading it of coarse, how could one not! But I felt that it lacked the certain flair and character development that the last 3 books succeeded well in. The book begins with Mia in Genovia on Winter Break. She has just as many mishaps and problems there as she does in New York. She has meeting upon meeting, and dinner after dinner to attend. Which upon reading the first 50 pages of the book is all that is read. However, when she returns to New York, AEHS, and her friends, the mood of the book begins to feel more like the last 3 books. Her mother in is in the mists of pregnacy. She has just begun Algebra II. And on top of that she is now worring if Michael "loves her" or if he's "in love with her." And if that isn't enough for a 14 year old teenage girl, imagine your Grandmother trying to fix you up with a homeless prince! Yes, although this was not my favorite book in Meg Cabot's Princess Diaries Series, it was still amusing and funny. I smiled and laughed at the sweet Michael and Mia parts, which by far made the novel complete! I highly recommend that if you have enjoyed the series to read this one as well. It may not live up to the others, but its still a good read. And for those of you that keep up with the Princess Diaries Series, watch for the 4 1/2 installment (yes weird I know) called Project Princess. Which is scheduled to hit book stores sometime in late July! ...

Summary: The Best in the Series!
Review: I have read all of the "Princess Diaries" books and seen the movie, and I have to say that not only are the books the better of the titles, but this book is the best in the series of the books! It is funny, romantic, and deep. Not as thick as you might think, this novel is a fairly easy read that won't make you bored. If you are looking for a series that is fantastic on many levels, check out the "Princess Diaries" novels. You won't be able to put them down!

Summary: Disappointment
Review: After reading the first three books in the series, I was so excited that Meg Cabot was coming out with another Princess Diaries book! More brain candy! Well, once I got it, I was extreamly disappointed. Mia rambles on and on about how much she misses michale, and on and on about the same four topics. BORING! I couldn't finish it because the plot wasn't going anywhere, and it was mostly rambling. I wouldn't suggust this book to anyone, but I have and will continue to reccomend the other books in the series to others. Will I continue to read the series? Only if Cabot hooks the reader within the first fifty pages, which Princess in Waiting certianly did not.

Summary: Great..but not as great as the first 3
Review: This book had the same old humor and funny plotline as the other 3, but mia changed when she gets worried too much about her relationships, and what about the other old characters? But it made me LOL, just like the other books.

Rating:
Summary: Good
Review: This was a good book, because Princess Mia seems so real.. and the episodes in Genovia are funny. My only problem with it is that Mia seems kind of stupid-just, well, worrying to much about boyfriends. It's kind of ridiculous to call your boyfriend every night long distance from Genovia...think about the phone bill! But other than that, I like Mia, Micheal is nice, Grandmere is, as usual, absolutely horrifying, and Lilly is..well, Lilly. You should buy this book.

Summary: Princess in Waiting Review
Review: I rated this book a one because I was very disappointed with it! I have written all the others in this series, and although I liked them while I was reading them, I now dislike them. I find the main character to be extremely selfish and inconsiderate of others. This book is nothing more than a teenage girl whining about her life! I would not recommend this book to any of my fellow peers unless they wished to suffer!
