I LOVE Meg Cabot, but have to say that this book was a bit transitionary. Mia wants to go to prom, but Michael does not. Now what? That's the basic premise, and while always cute, not as engaging as the others. ( )Mia's dream is to go to Prom with Michael, her boyfriend and her best friend's (Lily) brother. However, it doesn't seem like he is planning on asking her. Will Mia work up enough courage to ask him herself? The prom isn't the only problem in this story! Mia and her family (Michael too) are eating out at a fancy restaurant, when little does anyone know until it happens, Genovian Queen, otherwise known as Mia's Grandmother, brought her dog with. When he jumps out of her purse and trips a busboy, causing him to get fired, Lilly starts a huge petition and breaks up with her long term boyfriend, Boris. Now, it looks like prom is going to be canceled, and New York city is on strike. Find out what happens next in this exciting edition of the "Princess Diaries" book series by Meg Cabot! This was such a good book! Meg has so many amazing teen books and all of the ones that I have read were so good! This was no exception! She does a nice job capturing an exciting "princess" feeling while at the same time giving Mia and the other characters real life problems that everyday teens might face. Applauds for Meg! In this continuing series, Princess Mia just wants to be like any other kid in high school, enjoy the prom. However, this diary entry is filled with mayhem and a boyfriend who doesn’t see the big deal of the prom. I enjoyed this episode in Mia's life more than the previous one - and I empathised with her dilemma's over the prom - it would ruin things to have to ask your boyfriend, then you wouldn't get the romantic asking! Yep, I was just like this 'round about the time of my prom. Ulp. Yet again more troubles with Mia but as alwas there has to be 1 good thing for every bad thing no reviews | add a review

| Book description |
|
Things are looking up for Mia: She's the newest staffer on the school paper, and her miraculous completion of freshman Algebra is just around the corner. Plus she's about to get a new baby brother or sister. Could things possibly get any better?
But in her heart of hearts, Mia has one wish: an evening spent with Michael in a tux and a corsage on her wrist -- in other words, the PROM. Michael, however, does not seem to share the dream that is the prom. Worse still, a service workers strike (with Grandmère and Lilly at the heart of it and on opposite sides) threatens the very existence of this year's prom.
Will the strike end in time? Can Michael be dissuaded from his anti-prom views? Most importantly, will Mia get to wear her pink prom dress?
