   3.5 stars. This was pretty good! I think it's more directed at younger girls and how to dress and act and stuff to be a "princess". But really, Meg Cabot is just writing "princess" to mean a nice, young, caring girl basically haha 3.5 stars. This was pretty good!

   If you watched the Princess Diaries movie and liked the scenes featuring princess lessons, then this book is for you. Though it claims to teach how to look and act like a princess, it is filled with basic etiquette everyone should know and attitude everyone should possess. The underlying message of the book is good and I applaud the intention.

   Definitely targeted towards a younger audience, but cute nevertheless - I liked the chapter about being environmentally friendly.

   Now this one was fun! It's a guidebook on how to start acting like a princess and it is perfect for little girls who are just beginning to find themselves. There were some really relevant information and I would have to say I learnt quite a few things from it! And since it wasn't preachy and textbook-y, I enjoyed it very much! The interview of Michael by Tina and Mia's commentaries were quite funny. This was a fun filler book and well, it taught me a thing or two so I feel like I'm ready to be a Now this one was fun!

Must ask Dad if he is also hiding the fact that he is the ruler of a small principality like Mia's dad did. ;)

   This book was cute cause it has pictures and teaches you how to act like a proper princess. Pretty quick read and have tips from a bunch of characters that have popped up in the series so far.

   If you are looking for something light and breezy, something that will make you laugh while also giving you little nuggets of wisdom - this is the perfect book! I had a wonderful time laughing and enjoying these simple princess lessons or should I say life lessons, even if you are not a princess? ;) Total hoot! :)

   This was cute, and had some good general notes. Read it mostly because I've been missing the early Princess Diaries books - getting all nostalgic and stuff.

   It was an amusing and quick read. I love illustrations in books and the ones in Princess Lessons were really neat. It had commentaries from Mia and her friends to her grandmother, father, stylist and designer. I am astounded by the extensiveness of the author's knowledge about these things. It comprised of the things that every girl, princess or no princess, should do in order to act like one. Personally, I would prefer starving to death than having 5 forks and 5 knives, 2 glasses and 3 plates a It was an amusing and quick read.

   This is a "non-fiction" book instructing readers on proper princess behavior. (Hint: The takeaway message for all princesses-in-training is just to be themselves.) Written by the fictional characters from The Princess Diaries series, this how-to manual is awesome and hilarious and awesome. Five stars!

    Princess Lessons is a compilation of tips and tricks on how to be a princess from our favorite Princess Diaries characters. It includes beauty tips from Paolo, etiquette from Grandmere, and other fun advice and facts about real princesses from various people in the Princess Diaries world. I really loved this. I think Princess Lessons would be the perfect gift to give a tween or young teen who is a fan of the series. Even if they're not fans of the series they might enjoy it, but it's better to be Princess Lessons is a compilation of tips and tricks on how to be a princess from our favorite Princess Diaries characters.

Even if they're not fans of the series they might enjoy it, but it's better to be familiar with the characters in order to understand some of the humor involved. Some of the tips were actually really good. There's a mix of actual advice and silly things such as the proper way to curtsy or wear a crown. So, it doesn't read like a manual because of the humor and side-notes from Mia. It stresses confidence, good hygiene, kindness, and just being yourself. A great message to young people who are under constant pressure to look and act a certain way. This is by no means necessary to the series in general. It doesn't further the story or have any plot points, but it's a great companion that provides awesome tips all the while making you laugh.

    Short Review for a Short Book This was so cute! It's basically all the stuff she learns in the movie, like crossing the ankles, and then more stuff we didn't "see" in the movie! I really liked how it had chapters and tips from others such as her grandma, and her stylist! I would probably starve to death if i was a princess, wayyyyyy too hard to remember which forks goes with what, and i know for sure i would end up drinking the stuff you're supposed to rinse your hands in or eat the stuff that yo Short Review for a Short Book This was so cute!

The thank you notes part was cute as well, i know in this day in age, Thank You notes are pretty much gone, but i think we need to bring them back!

    This is really an etiquette/beauty/fashion advice book for young girls, sprinkled with some references to the Princess Diaries series. It's actually a pretty good guide on these matters, emphasizing self-confidence, manners, hygiene, etc. and would be a good advice book for girls at that confusing age where you're learning how to dress yourself, etc. There were a few cute parts relating to the series, but you could read the book without having read any of the others and still get something out of This is really an etiquette/beauty/fashion advice book for young girls, sprinkled with some references to the Princess Diaries series.

    This short book was all about the different characteristics of what it means to be a princess and how to act like one. I liked that this included little appearances from some of the other characters in the main series. What I enjoyed most about this book was the main goal which was to make whoever was reading this feel better about themselves, no matter what they looked like or what they wanted in life.

    Despite some of the obvious silliness geared towards a younger audience, this book has some real merit. Essentially, it’s a teen’s guide to etiquette written under the guise of the characters in the Princess Diaries series. I have to say the the chapter about character was quite enlightening. Including the Jungian Tree of Self-Actualization . . . Impressive!

    Well... This was a nice but also a bit pointless addition to the princess diaries series... The different parts were "written" by the numerous persons who Mia spends her life with, which was quite amusing and made it an okay read but I could also have done without it. Well...

    It is a very funny guide to girls how to be a real princess. It contains a list of things what real princess has to carry in her bag and many similar lists. Very funny and entertaining pleasure read.

    The Story Girl – Nov 12, 2018

    This was a pretty short book consisting of Grandmere going over the various etiquettes of how to be a princess, with short essays with other characters from the series such as Tina, Mia's cousin Howard (?), and even a short snippet with Michael at the end. It's not a badly written book, it's just not for me - and I'm clearly way out of the age range of it. I feel like maybe little girls would enjoy this more.

Apparently, this was one I had overlooked when I originally read the series in high school.

    "I figured I would share what I've learned during the long, grueling hours I've putting with Grandmere, so that you, too, can practice being a princess." (1) This book was a pretty funny tell all about what is learned in princess lessons. It was super funny to see how all the charters were incorporated. I learned something new. This book was a quick read, as I read it in about a hour! I would recommend this book to anyone into teen rom coms!

    This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers. To view it, click here. More like 3.5* This was a cute, fun, quick little read that actually had a really good message. To be a princess you have to do your best, be true to yourself, and try to help others. Sometimes we all need to be reminded of those things, and that they do not just apply to royalty.

    This was more an etiquette book than part of the rest of the series. Each of the characters wrote a chapter. Most were not humorous. It was worth the read as it was part of the series, hurt not of much interest, otherwise.

    This was a cute book. I definitely would not be a very good princess. I didn't really enjoy this book all that much. But I just don't think this book was my cup of tea. It is a cute book and I think many people will enjoy it, even if I didn't. This was a cute book. I definitely would not be a very good princess. I didn't really enjoy this book all that much.
