Valentine Princess

Valentine Princess is hilarious. Mia is freaking out because it's her first Valentine's Day as a couple with Michael, and she wants to do something special, but Michael isn't a fan of the "holiday," since he sees it as a way for companies to exploit money out of people. When reading the series, I opted to skip the companion books and read them later. I'm so glad I did that. It's been a couple of years since I finished the series, and having Mia back in my life is wondrous.

This was a short book, but I laughed throughout the entire thing, and I couldn't put it down. Meg Cabot proves how hilarious she is by throwing in some ironic statements by Mia that are supposed to prove how much she and Michael are meant for each other. Remember, although this was published in 2006, it's supposed to take place roughly around 2002. So she has some hilarious lines about Michael being the Brad to her Jennifer, and other references to "made-for-each-other" couples that weren't exactly made for each other.

Definitely a must-read for all Princess Diaries fans. Although, consider waiting to read this until you're either finished with the series or in publication order (after Book 7), because Meg throws in a few references that you won't get unless you're at Book 7. And trust me, it is so much funnier that way. ( )

The princess diaries are fantastic. You can read them in a lunch hour, they're funny, energetic, and completely pleasant. They are the ice cream of books. ( )

VALENTINE PRINCESS is the 7th book in THE PRINCESS DIARIES series. This is another one of those books that you should only read if you have read the rest of the series. If you don't read them in order, they may not make a lot of sense.

Even though this book is only eighty-six pages long, a lot happens, and it is very funny and keeps up Meg Cabot's very fun and exciting writing style. If you are looking for a very fast read this is the way to go. I think it took me less than an hour to read the entire book!!

THE PRINCESS DIARIES books are all written in the form of a journal that Princess Mia keeps. Something very funny happens to mean old Grandmere in the very end of this installment that makes the whole point of the story even funnier!

Ms. Cabot goes back to Mia and Michael's first Valentine's Day together and tells the story of that. The whole book is a flashback that Mia has when finding and reading one of her old journals. Although that little tricky point was a little confusing to me at first, VALENTINE PRINCESS is another winner! ( )

This was fluffy and cute. I liked it that when Michael asks Mia out one evening, she straight up says, no I have plans with a girlfriend, and he happily makes plans for the next night instead. No drama. Not that this book isn;t full of drama - just there's honesty when it counts. ( )

really cute short read. This is the book leading up to A Princess Diaries Book: VIII Princess on the Brink. ( )
