The first book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot.

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.

Not Like The Movies At All, But Still Good

Chelsea B. - 4 years 11 months ago

Book was really good, but if you are thinking that it will be like the movie (like I did), you will be greatly disappointed because there are so many different things. I had a really hard time at the beginning trying to compare it to the movie, but I found it was easier if you just try and separate the book and the movie and think of them as not related. The book was good though and I really liked it. It was easy to read and something easy for on the go, and I like how there are many books in the series, but not feeling like I need to read them all since it is separated from the movies. If you're even mildly interested, give it a go. #SpringPicks
Witty and unexpected!

Though the movie adaptation will always hold a place in my heart, nothing truly compares to Meg Cabot's novel. The characters are more complex and the plot more compelling. Don't let her bright glittery cover fool you, Cabot's writing is strange and wonderful - not at all the frilly substance-lacking quick read I expected. Cabot has a lot to say about politics and what it means to be a leader - and what it means to come of age under unconventional circumstances.
