so-soThis one felt like total filler to me. Minimal character development, mostly for Lily and a cousin named Hank.
pickSometimes I feel weird giving a pick to both a meaty classic and a contemporary YA, but I have to stop and remind myself that each book has its own purpose. This one is primarily to entertain, and on that score, I believe it does.
Book two in The Princess Diaries series has Mia still trying to come to terms with the discovery of her princess-ship, while balancing a new development in her home life. All this, while navigating a typical teen crush.

I don‘t have books that involve activism, but I always remember Lilly Moscovitz when I think about it.

so-soPrincess Mia is such a lovable and relatable character which makes the second installment of "Princess Diaries" fun and easy to read. I think almost every girl's dream is to be princess but not everyone looks like one which makes the book a peoples' book, something that is close to people's heart. I have no doubt that Mia would be a great ruler to Genovia.
pickThis young adult series is so much fun. ☺😀😂 #princessinthespotlight #theprincessdiaries #Mia #funny #youngadult #royals
"Hey, I thought my mom was a feminist who didn‘t believe in the male hierarchy and was against the subjugation and obfuscation of the female identity that marriage entails." (for a preteen to read this it was so educational and this series was my intro to feminism ?)
