Another Disappointment - Rated 
Cabot has definitely killed this series, she should have stopped at book three (maybe even four). The "student election" story line was slightly more captivating compared to the abysmal "Prom fiasco" that fuelled the fifth book, but apart from that i was "totally" (a word used waaaay 2 much) bored with the plot about Michael wanting her to "do it". Is it just me who is predicting that their so-called blissful relationship is about to end?
Only read this book if your a fan desperate to know what happens next in Mia's clumsily written life.
It's not THAT bad - Rated 
I'll admit Mia is a total wuss :
She's freaked out by sex at 15!!!!!
She has old fashioned values(she wanted her mum to find out what happened to her 1st boyfriend...)
She is a real push-over
...
Her obseesion with Micheal (what's he thinking?,constantley wondering if he'll break up with her) doesn't seem realistic but those are the exact thoughts that go through some girls heads, Mia's case is an exageration.
But a book about a "normal" life with no exagerations would be boring
And for all those complaining about the writing style : Do you expect a teenage girl's diary written for teenagers to be some kind of classic novel?
It's not the kind of book I usualy read but if I feel like something "light" to read then i will read the princess Diaries
They ARE good books, but they're just not suitable if you're looking for a "proper read".
Nobody is forcing you to read this book so don't if all you're going to do is say that it's a waste of time
These books just get worse and worse! - Rated 
I used to really like these books when I was eleven, but now, three years later, these books just seem pathetic. I cringed reading half this book, and wanted to smack Mia most of the time. This book would have been quite good if it weren't for the fact that she whined on and on about Michael. If she'd actually TOLD him how she was feeling, etc, like a normal teenage girl would have, then we wouldn't have been tortured with her whining for the whole book. Plus, the stuff with her English teacher was so unrealistic and stupid.
So in my opinion, this book was a load of rubbish. It was unrealistic, annoying, and Mia was very immature in the book. I'm possibly considering not reading Meg's books anymore. If she wrote more books like the Mediator series, but books like this and Teen Idol? A load of rubbish.
So if you, like me, have hated the last two Princess Diaries books, it's probably not a good idea to read this one.
What happened to the Princess Diaries?! - Rated
These books used to be so good... they made me laugh out loud, they were different and they were really cool! So, I grabbed this book when it first came out (couldn't be bothered to review til now), and read it from start to finish in about an hour. It was terrible. It has totally stupid problems and a dumb storyline. Mia has gone from bright and funny, to boring and stupid. The whole thing revolves around: "Does Michael want...? Is Michael going to...? Is Michael feeling...?" and it's all so negative apart from the really soppy ending. Michael's ending speech made me cringe so badly, I nearly shut the book and recoiled in horror. I can't read that! It was so trashy! So basically, this book was a complete waste of time - only buy it if you're so desperate to find out what happens next to Mia
Teenage books - Rated
we teenage girls are expected only to like books about boys,make up and hair, or thats what it seems to say in all the book reviews for teenage girls. They are really all bimbo books and have no meaning, good plots or anything that makes you think.I am 13 and recently i have read 'the color purple', and found it very enjoyable and interesting. I think that teenagers have been stereotyped not to read very challenging books and i think that in the teenage section there should be more classics and books by respected and established writers on a range of different topics from politics to social issues. More choice for teenagers!
