    Princess Mia is back in the final installment in the PRINCESS DIARIES series.  Mia is ending her senior year and life
    couldn’t be more stressful!  Where will Mia go to college?  Is her boyfriend, J.P., the one?  Will Michael ever return
    from Japan?  And will Mia survive turning eighteen?  What’s a princess to do?   

    I have enjoyed the PRINCESS DIARIES series ever since I read the first book and always enjoy escaping into
    Mia’s world.  I think what I love most about the series is that Mia’s voice is always fresh and funny and makes me
    giggle with girly happiness.  Even though Mia is a princess, she’s still a teenager and a geek at heart (which this fellow
    geek at heart loves).  Author Meg Cabot is the queen of teen chick lit and she always captures the perfect voice of
    teens in her novels.  Mia is relatable to teens, but also to older readers looking back on their own teen years.   

    Coming in at 400 pages, FOREVER PRINCESS is the longest of the PRINCESS DIARIES books and fans are in
    for a treat.  FOREVER PRINCESS is wonderfully funny and charming.  Mia has come a long way from her freshman
    year, and readers who have been following the series will see that Mia, as well as the rest of her friends, have grown
    up along the way.  

    But just because Mia and the gang are seniors doesn’t mean their crazy adventures are far from over, and Mia again
    finds herself in over her head.  Meg Cabot delivers a winner that I’m sure fans old and new will fall in love
    with.               

    I have to admit that as much as I enjoyed this book, I was sad when I finished and I really hope that Meg Cabot will
    write about Mia’s adventures after high school in the future.  I’ll always be happy to read more about Princess Mia.
