Then Dad has to go and reveal that he is the crown prince of Genovia. And guess who still doesn't have a date for the Cultural Diversity Dance?

Unforgettable scene in the movie, but honestly the old Mia will never change! Her spirit was raw and that what made the movie unforgettable, Lovely story of a girl growing up. Must Read/Watch.

With just a glance you can probably tell what I spent all of February doing. 😅

I binged the entire Princess Diaries series this month, with a few extra audiobooks thrown in for good measure.

#bookreport #romance #ya #princess #pink

Clwojick Wow! I had no idea there were that many books in the series! I would‘ve guessed 6 or 7 2y
Gnora @Clwojick yup! There‘s 10 in the original series, plus 4 novellas, which plus 2 adult books published latter. 2y

I think it‘s odd how both of the books I‘ve read this year with movie adaptations have bad relationships that are not displayed in said movie. I would have like to seen Mia deal with her mother not being a responsible adult but, hey, it‘s a ten book series dot there‘s still time. Based on personal experience, it bugs me to hear a character complain about being flat chested the entire book, but I like the body sensitivity rep. For ⬇️

Zoe-h ⬆️ these reasons and many more I wanted to not enjoy this book, but I couldn‘t help deeply liking it. It is likely I will buy the next one. 4⭐️ 3y

There are quite few “Are you there God? It‘s me Margaret.” moments with a “Clueless” feel. Not terribly deep but endearing.

Not my best color match for #Pantone2022 but close. Also completed my #Booked2022 prompt about a royal.

So, this book was very short, so it was easy to get through. But I really didn't enjoy it. I am not the right audience for this book. I haven't seen the movie in forever, so I have it on right now for background noise. #BookToMovie

HollyBolly I read this after seeing the movie a while ago while I was in high school or maybe college. Thus is one of those rare instances where the movie was better. 3y
ElizaMarie @HollyBolly YES! I rarely say that the movie was better, but this one is definitely the case! 3y

I‘m really not enjoying this one. She is too awkward teen for me. Maybe I‘m too old for this one. Seriously thinking to DNF it but I‘m about 40% in

@AkashaVampie @AnansiGirl @jb72 @AsYouWish @mollyrotondo @Bibliobliss @Butterfinger

jb72 I find it awkward. I‘m definitely not the intended reader. I‘ll finish it since it seems to be a quick read. 3y
mollyrotondo I read this one when I was a teenager and struggled with it then lol this is definitely a more entertaining movie than read. 3y
ElizaMarie @DGRachel - sorry the phone had bad service so it posted this a billion times! I might end up DNFing it. It‘a not too long so I might be able to breeze through it but…. Life‘s too short too! 3y

ElizaMarie @kamoorephoto - sorry my phone! But yeah I liked the movie. Also in the movie she is less self centered and less whiny 3y
ElizaMarie @jb72 I have about an hour left. I can muster through an hour. I have some chores to do. SO I can do it that way. I don know if going #AudioCommute for this was the right call. Its read by Anne Hathaway (who I love) but she is really playing up the whiney teenage drama! 3y
ElizaMarie @mollyrotondo YES! I am thinking this one is a definite - Movie-IS-Better type of thing here. 3y
jb72 @ElizaMarie I didn‘t care for the movie either. I watched it the other night. But then again I‘m not a fan of Hathaway. I did like the ending of the movie. 3y
ElizaMarie @jb72 So, its not really my “type“ of media (too light for me!) but.. I remember thinking the movie was cute. Nothing amazing but nothing horrible. I am gonna see if I can find it on one of the streaming platforms and have it on (probably as background noise too!) 3y
jb72 @ElizaMarie I watched it on Disney Plus. 3y
ElizaMarie @jb72 I just put it on :) 3y

AkashaVampie @PageShifter I'm sorry u couldn't make it sweetie. It wasn't bad. We had fun. It was only me and a couple other ladies. I understand since it was last min and like gets in the way. I am thinking about trying to do it once a week with one week doing a morning watch party like at 9am EST and the other week doing an evening party at about 8pm EST. Also might try doing a poll to see what everyone would wanna watch for the week. 3y

AkashaVampie @PageShifter awww im sorry sweetie. The movie is on other things but u have to pay for it. it looks like its about $5 on Prime, Vudu, Apple TV, Youtube, Google Play. Not sure if that is something u can afford, but its an option. 3y

Hello. If u didn't see my posts from yesterday, here is what's up! I have planned a watch party for tonight @ 7:30pm EST (sorry if thats super early where u live) for the #NWC book of Jan & Feb, The Princess Diaries. Sadly if u are joining in, u either need to own the movie or have a subscription to Disney Plus. Was really hoping that screen sharing was going to work! 😢 Everyone is welcome.

I don't have much to say about this one. I liked it but didn't love it. It's nice for a light read in between some heavier stuff. I can imagine how it would be a great read for those who always wished they would become a princess later. For me it was more of an acknowledgement that I didn't want that.

The story might sound like a dream to most girls, but Cabot's protagonist is convinced this will be a nightmare for her. I liked that she touched on the potential downsides of the princess life in a way that felt true to the character & age group. At the same time, it didn't go deep enough for me, and often felt more like telling than showing. There's probably more to explore in future volumes, but I'm not convinced I want to continue.

Man, is this a throw back or what? Besides Harry Potter, Meg Cabot's The Princess Diaries was another book series that was very important in my life. It is so nice to return to the life of Mia Thermopolis. It is a little dated and Mia can be very naive, but that is exactly how teenagers act. But it was still a great read, it was really fun and just nostalgic for me. I think I'll enjoy this series. 4 out of 5

A nice, quick read. I am one of the rare people who has not seen the adaptation, but I‘ve heard good things about it and the books. I love the concept (and that it‘s written as a diary!!) but I‘m not sure how I feel about Mia. I found her a bit annoying. Either way I still enjoyed it and look forward to reading the next book!

This was a cute listen for my walks and drive to work. Very short and loved that it was narrated by Anna Hathaway!

(Must admit I liked the movie better!)

We all know this story - Mia finds out she is actually a princess - not just a regular high school student. I did really like her character and her interactions with everyone else in the story. Typical teenager.

Just definitely geared to a younger audience.

Wt if u were an ordinary girl and someone or your family member tells you that u r a princess, wt would your reaction be? Surprised , shocked , happy , sad , confused? . This happens with the school freak , Mia thermopolis.Her grandmother decides her looks and behaviour but it's not easy for Mia or Amelia .

When I first found this book in the YA section of the library, I have to admit that I was not convinced. Looking at the cover and reading the blurb about a girl who had just been told that she was a princess, I thought that I was years beyond it

However, giving it a chance was one of the best decisions that I made...the whole series is hilarious (and definitely not for young children!)

A perfect example of not judging a book by it's cover 😂

CoffeeNBooks I enjoyed this series, and now have a set of these books in my classroom library. 6y
