The Princess Diaries is the first volume of the critically-acclaimed, best-selling series by Meg Cabot. It had been released in 2000 by Harper Collins Publishers. The Princess Diaries novels are divided in to journal articles of different lengths, not chapters as in most novels. The series spent 38 months on the The Ny Times Children's Series Best Sellers List and has been sold to publishers in 37 international countries.The Princess Diaries is the log of Mia Thermopolis, a fourteen-year-old, a regular teen, exploring the issues of adolescent angst, love and betrayal through really opinionated eyes however her world is tossed ugly when she discovers she is a queen and the next heir to the throne of Genovia. Mia doesn't adapt to this media simply and struggles to comprehend her new position in the world as queen of Genovia.Mia is really a lovely personality and at times quite interesting as she likes to wear combat boots and overalls than the designer clothes that she is expected to sport and usually does wrong or mortifying points, in the long run she learns from her errors. She is recognized for biting her fingernails, thinking over her pet 'Fat Louie' (whom she admits to loving probably the most in the world, over her mother and friends), being concerned about her life to a high degree, and writing in her diary when she can.The style of writing really is easy and conversational. It is observed to include recommendations, which include films, singers, and fads in contemporary culture. Many critics have taken unkindly for this kind of story-telling, but personally I discovered it a big change from other novels and thoroughly appreciated the Princess Diaries series good book. The book was adapted into film using the same title in 2001, and peaked at number three in box-office charts. But the book and the movie are unique and greatly change in story-lines so if you liked the movie and you have perhaps not browse the book then I truly think you should do so.
