Princess+in+Waiting

The book that I read was Princess in waiting by Meg Cabbot. I liked the book a lot. It was fairly slow at the beginning, but as I read further, it got more exciting. The book is also known as the movie princess diaries. The story was told in Mia’s journal entries, as she finds that being a princess is not as simple as it seems! I could pursue the plot of this story very well.

In fact, Mia is a character that is very easy to relate to. She seems like she has the common problems that any teen faces, the cheerleaders, the jocks, and the relationship issues that most people go through. In the story, you follow Mia Thermopolis to the country of Genovia. At the age of just 14, her grandmother comes to visit Mia in her New York apartment that she lives in with her mom. While she is there, her grandmother tells Mia that she is the next in line to rule over Genovia. This book reminds me of when I found out that my family was germen when we never knew that. My grand parents went to Germany to see what it would be like to live there.

Similarly, the main characters in Princess in Waiting are Mia, Her grandmother Claireice, and Mia’s boyfriend, Michel. In addition Mia is a distinctive teenager that finds out that she is an heir to a throne. She is a vegetarian, and is passionate about saving the environment. She is also certainly tall like me. Her best friend Lilly, is very outgoing, and has her own talk show; Lilly tells it like it is. Mia’s boyfriend Michel, is Lilly’s brother. He is incredibly smart, and is in the gifted and talented class at their school.

Overall, I loved this book. I could not put it down. I read it over thanksgiving break, and my mom kept informing me to enjoy my break, and stop reading. I would recommend this book for any one who wants a character that they can connect to. When I completed the book, it made me feel that I could accomplish anything! Written by: Paige
