Summary: "Princess In Waiting" is a winner!
Comment: In this fourth installment of the hilarious Princess Diaries series, Mia is finally in Genovia over her winter break to be introduced to the Genovian public- where her daily schedule includes activities such as "Dedicate new modern wing of Royal Genovian Museum of Art," or "Outing with Monaco's Royal Family, Royal Genovian Yacht," and the never-ending princess lessons with Grandmere. But Mia's introduction doesn't go quite as anticipated- the Genovians weren't expecting her to be talking about how installing parking meters is a big issue! Separated from her boyfriend and true love, Michael, Mia eagerly counts down the days in her journal until she can return home to Manhattan and live her normal life again- with the exception of the princess stuff, of course. So when Mia gets back, she gets especially excited when Michael asks her to a screening of their favorite movie, Star Wars, on Friday night. But once again, Grandmere steps in and declares that Mia must go to Contessa Trevanni's ball the exact same day of Mia's date with Michael- and now, Mia is sure that Michael will dump her after she breaks him the news. From Mia having to deal with Grandmere taking her out of school early to get a gown for the ball to Lilly telling Mia that she has a talent that she hasn't figured out yet, Mia's life as a freshman at Albert Einstein High School during the second semester is filled with ups and downs! A wonderful sequel to "Princess in Love," which will have fans eagerly waiting for Book #5.

Summary: Not The Best In The Series, But Still A Winner!
Comment: 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: good, but had a few down sides
Comment: The book was good, but it mentioned the same things over and over. It was revolved around two things: the ball and Michael. Speaking of Michael. I know exactly someone like him. Is that slightly freaky? He is MY friend's older brother, smart, plays the bass, in highschool, etc. Back to the book, it was kind of slow moving since it reiterated the same things over and over again, and that can get kind of redudant. It didn't seem like Mia talked to Lilly a lot in this book like before. They don't seem as close friends, or maybe because the book didn't really incorporate her into the story as much.
