Although this is a "Teen" book, I would recommend it to anyone. It is adorable, light and funny. What an average teenager goes through in everyday life, then add the fact that she suddenly discovers she is a princess of a small European principality. A well written, heartwarming, quick read.

As a fan of the movies, I must say I was a bit disappointed with this book. I can understand the changes that were made, but yeah. On its own though, the book was a fun one and it shows great promise for an ongoing tale.

Character is an amazing role model for young girls, great mentoring book.

My seventh grade students highly recommended this book, and I'm glad I listened! It's a quick read, and entertaining.

I really enjoyed reading this series of book. I thought Meg Cabot did an excellent job of potraying the life of a princess.

THis was such a good book it made me feel like a princess!

First book in the series, where of course Mia learns that she is not what she seems. She is a Genovian Princess.

A great story very different from the movie however.

wonderful coming of age story

a great fun read
