The one and only Mia Thermopolis is back and ready to reign! Celebrate the 20th anniversary of Meg Cabot’s blockbuster series in royal style—with all-new middle grade editions of the first three books! Mia Thermopolis is pretty sure there’s nothing worse than being a five-foot-nine, flat-chested freshman, who also happens to be flunking Algebra. Is she ever in for a surprise. First Mom announces that she’s dating Mia’s Algebra teacher. Then Dad has to go and reveal that he is the crown prince of Genovia. And guess who still doesn’t have a date for the Cultural Diversity Dance? The Princess Diaries is the first book in the beloved, bestselling series that inspired the feature film starring Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews.

I never expected to like the book as much as the movie (a bit less, because the movies are literally one of my favourite movies ever). This one gets a well-deserved four star rating. I enjoyed it, there were some differences of course (for example Mia's dad is alive in this book, so that's weird for me).
Overall I loved the vibe of the book! :)
3.5 stars
the only thing that bothered me, a lot, that Mia was happy Iran bombed Afghanistan so her picture kissing that guy that she should have shoved and pushed away is not plastered on every newspaper's front page
