Princess in the Spotlight (The Princess Diaries #2)

Reader reviewed by Amanda

Mia’s back again in The Princess Diaries, Volume 2: Princess in the Spotlight. More crazy things ahead…


Helen Thermopolis is pregnant. With who you might ask? A baby? Certainly. But, yes…. Mr. Gianini, Mia’s algebra teacher. No, they aren’t married, but is that something new for Ms. T? Now what? They are getting married. On what holiday? Halloween. Who will be moving into the apartment? And, who is still getting a D in his class?


Soon, Mia’s Grandmere and father plan her an interview on a high-rated news show. Who messes it up? Now, Shameeka’s parents want her at a new school. Lilly’s angry about the social divisions Mia talked about in the interview. Plus, she was granted rights to the first interview with Mia! And, what about those love letters? Mia says it must be Michael, but you are in for a surprise. Will Mia make it? Check out Princess in the Spotlight today!


Princess in the Spotlight was a good sequel to The Princess Diaries. I enjoyed Lilly and Hank’s escapades, the formal wedding, and Mia’s countless math problems (solving them!). If you are a girl and 12 and up, you’ll love this story!

Mia Thermopolis is a 14 year old teen who is going through a lot of weird promblems. First her mom announces to her that she is pregnant with her algebra teachers baby.So that means her mom is getting married.

Mia also has an interview and reveals a lot of stuff about school and her friends, which she doesnt mean to since she was kind of sick that day. So Mia and her friend Lilly are going through some best friend problem times which just makes things a little bit worse for Mia.

Mia kind of has the hots for her friends brother and is a little scared to tell anyone.

I think ALL the princess diary books are EXCELLENT and every girl from 12+ should read this.This book has a lot of interesting promblems that most teens are going through and will always be a favorite of mine. If you havent read these books yet i hope you do because you will CERTAINLY ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!
