The Princess Diaries By Meg Cabot


About the Book:

She's just a New York City girl living with her artist mom...

News Flash: Dad is prince of Genovia. (So that's why a limo meets her at the airport!)

Downer: Dad can't have any more kids. (So no heir to the throne.)

Shock of the Century: Like it or not, Mia Thermopolis is prime princess material.

Mia must take princess lessons from her dreaded grandmére, the dowager princess of Genovia, who thinks Mia has a thing or two to learn before she steps up to the throne.

Well, her father can lecture her until he's royal-blue in the face about her princessly duty--no way is she moving to Genovia and leaving Manhattan behind. But what's a girl to do when her name is
Princess Amelia Mignonette Grimaldi Thermopolis Renaldo?

My Thoughts:

The movie was better is all I have to say!

Memorable Lines:

Lilly says I have an overactive imagination and a pathological need to invent drama in my life.

I don’t know if you’ve ever been to the ladies’ room at the Plaza, but it’s like totally the nicest one in
Manhattan. It’s all pink, and there are mirrors and little couches everywhere, in case you look at yourself and feel the urge to faint from your beauty or something.

Lars is here, too. He isn’t checking the clock, though. He keeps checking his ammunition clip to
make sure he has enough bullets. I suppose my dad told him to shoot Josh if he makes a move on me.
