I like the further insight to Mia’s princess lessons, and how quickly she does have to adapt to the public eye, the romantic subplot is fairly engaging, not to mention the fact that she’s willing to try to be with Kenny. I tend to see the first three books as a mini-trilogy, and Princess in the Spotlight is a good bridge between books one and three. (Wait ‘til I get to book seven.) Technically, this should be one of the filler books, but it’s not.
One of the big problems I have with many long-running series- Princess Diaries in particular-is the point where some books start becoming filler as opposed to actual plot development. you don't want to ruin the first books while trying to talk about the current book. This is the thing with reviews for sequels.
Gosh, I really don't want to spoil for those who haven't read it.
And then the thing with Mia's mom and Mr. it's so obvious that they like each other. I just wish that Michael and Mia would just confess already. But I figured it out before it was revealed. Then the whole secret admirer thing kept me guessing. =)This time Mia has to deal with so much again, while still getting used to the idea of being a princess and everything. well, considering how I finished it in one sitting, taking only a short washroom break. I say to myself, "I am a princess." You don't know how it makes you forget.And now, on to more "me" on this sequel. It would be easy to be a princess if I were dressed in cloth of gold, but it is a great deal more of a triumph to be one all the time when no one knows it."And in volume two:When things are horrible - just horrible - I think as hard as ever I can of being a princess. If I am a princess in rags and tatters, I can be a princess inside. I just have to add them because I loved the book and movie.From volume one:"Whatever comes," she said, "cannot alter one thing. I totally didn't mention it in my review for The Princess Diaries but at the beginning of the novel, there was a quote from A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
