 A satisfying finale to a great series January 7, 2009
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
In the final installment of Princess Dairies, Princess Mia Thermopolis goes through some pretty intense and stressful times that all students go through- choosing a college to go to after graduating from high school. But Mia has got more on her plate than she can deal with; she's stressed about her father's political campaign. She's worried about her repeatedly rejected novel that she has written for her final senior project, the extravagant party Grandmere is throwing her for her upcoming eighteenth birthday, and oh, the fact that Michael Moscovitz has come back from Japan, and she suddenly misses sniffing his neck when she already has a boyfriend whom she actually cares about. How will Mia solve her entangled issues in this gripping finale, and will she achieve the self-actualization she so wanted to fulfill at the outset of the series? Read to find out.
Although the ending was predicable, the book was thoroughly entertaining. Avid fans of Princess Diaries will not be disappointed by this finale. I have practically grown up with the princess diaries, as I started reading them when I first entered high school, and so I thought many of the book's part were very nostalgic. So sad to see the series end, but very glad it ended satisfyingly.
 The best in the series; a great way to end! January 2, 2009

I started reading the books when i was in my early teens and recently got back into them and after reading 1-9 was very excited to read this book to find out how the series ends. I wasn't left disappointed - 10 out of 10 for sure!!!.
This is definitely my favourite of all and well worth buying and reading. It is longer than the others so there is more of Mia and her friends to enjoy. We finally find out the reason behind Lilly's harsh treatment of Mia (which we and Mia can forgive her for), what Michael has been up to, if Mia and Michael (who has returned from Japan to live once again in New York, a success and a millionaire!), are still in love with each other and are meant to be together (answer: YES!!!), how Mia celebrates her 18th birthday/prom/graduation, the true intentions (lies) J.P has been keeping from his royal girlfriend (who we won't forgive for hurting Lilly, damaging Lilly's friendship with Mia and for keeping apart Mia and Michael), if Mia is able to get her romance novel published, whether Mia's father will become the Prime Minister of Genovia and what colleges Mia and her friends are going to.
Fans of the series and characters will not be disappointed with the conclusion which leaves them high school graduates with collages picked out and in relationships with their true loves (M+M!). Mia's relationship woes (friendship and romantic) are played out in a great way with her conflicting love for Michael whilst being in a relationship with J.P and her estranged friendship with Lilly which they manage to mend (Lilly also has a hand in Michael and Mia getting back together!). The small but frequent moments of the novel dedicated to Mia and Michael's interactions work well and give the reader and Mia a great dose of Michael showing how he and Mia have grown up and are ready to be together forever!!!
Cabot continues the form of the other novels and makes sure the reader is informed of what occurred in the time gap between books nine and ten. The ending is perfect with all loose ends being tied up and giving the reader a good idea of how the characters lives and loves will continue into the future.
Even if you haven't read the other books in the series this one is the one to read but if you fancy reading this great book series (which i recommend) then all read from 1-10 so you don't get confused by the order of events or spoil the ending for yourself and get a full understanding of the life of a Princess, specifically in this case Mia!
