Product Description

From Amazon.com

Fifteen-year-old Mia Thermopolis, the witty, lovable star of Meg Cabot's The Princess Diaries, has had it with princess lessons, also known as torture sessions: "Do they really think anyone in Genovia cares whether I know how to use a fish fork? Or if I can sit down without getting wrinkles in the back of my skirt? Or if I know how to say 'thank you' in Swahili? Shouldn't my future countrymen be more concerned with my views on the environment? And gun control? And overpopulation?" To make matters worse, she's getting these lessons from Grandmère, a rather judgmental woman who dresses her pet in chinchilla bolero jackets and has eyeliner permanently tattooed on her eyelids. Princess in the Spotlight further records Mia's path to princessdom: her artist mother's relationship with her algebra teacher (how awkward), her forced television interview, broadcast to all of America (how humiliating), and her crush on her best friend Lilly's brother Michael (how excruciating). The result is another thoroughly entertaining diary of a very human, very self-deprecating, very unprincesslike princess. (Ages 12 and older) --Karin Snelson --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

From Publishers Weekly

This follow-up to the Princess Diaries, the inspiration for the film starring Julie Andrews, chronicles Mai's crowning as princess of Geneva. The new monarch quickly discovers the power of an interview, as she nearly gets a teacher fired and manages to alienate her best friend and her royal subjects with a few simple sentences. Ages 12-up.

3.0 out of 5 stars Book two..., Jul 18 2004

By	Adele (Overland Park, Kansas.) - See all my reviews

The plot of this book was pretty dry. Just when you think it's getting interesting, it gets a bit dull again. I would only recommend this book if you want to read the others in the series and be able to understand them.

1.0 out of 5 stars NOT WHAT I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE, Jun 29 2004

By A Customer

I did not like this book because I was looking forward to finding out what happened to Mia when she went to Genovia. The book was so different than the movie. I was disappointed with how much they talked about french kissing and sex.I did't think it was a good influence on me so I put it down.I also didn't like that Mia's mom was pregnant outside of marriage. Wait until you are married than you can french kiss and have sex all you want to.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fun, light read, Jun 24 2004

By A Customer

This book was cute but incredibly unrealistic. I mean, a princess? One that appears on TV and everything?

*SPOILER ALERT*
The secret admirer thing was cute, but it totally couldn't have been Michael. I'm suprised that Mia didn't figure that earlier either. It kind of disappointed me a little bit at the end because Mia hooked up with Kenny. He's seems sweet, but she doesn't like him! The whole thing with Hank and Lilly, and he being an aspiring model was not necessary, in my opinion. I suppose it might have been some light-hearted humor or something. It also kind of pissed me off how, IN THE END, Michael complimented Mia, you know, after she said 'yes' to Kenny. God, what's wrong with boys...some are too shy and some are too arrogant.

Overall, 'Princess in the Spotlight' is a quick, easy read if you're looking for and entertaining, enjoyable book.
