The Quarantine Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot

 

Publisher: Harper Collins
Publication date: March 28 2023
Pages: 336
This is a review of an ebook through Netgalley.

To the surprise of many fans, parts of the diary of Mia Thermopolis, Queen of Genovia, leaked out onto the blog of author Meg Cabot...

In these diary entries, Mia describes the difficult time in Genovia during the Covid pandemic. Mia tried to keep everything in her family, palace and country under contrul Her husband Michael was exposed to the virus and had to go in a long quarantine period locked into his room. In the meantime, good old Grandmere didn't have the virus, but went a little weird. As she was a little too friendly with some young student from the USA which she eventually wanted to marry, which all went a little crazy. And the most difficult of all was how to keep Genovia safe of covid 19, which was a difficult political battle becuase the people of Genovia didn't let them put into a lockdown that easily. Everything turns into difficult and also hilarious situations, and Mia tries to keep everything under control. but then her former bully, Lana Weinberger, who is now a friend of her (you wonder why sometimes..) suddenly steps into the palace to go on a holiday, pandemic or not..

Fans of the famous Princess Diaries series will not be dissapointed with this new installment. The tone of the book is the same as the previous books in the series, with a very funny and light heart. I truly enjoyed reading this and it brought back good memories of the past books, and I hope this will not be the last book, the characters where all present in this stories, from Mia and her sister Oliva and the twins, to Grandmere and Michael and Mia's best friends Lily and Tina Hakim Baba. Only Mia's former teacher and her mom's new partner, Frank is not there anymore sadly because he passed away. But further on the whole family is complete and all have their specific parts in the story. And its is beautifully written as always by Meg Cabot. Meg, please keep the wonderful Princess Diaries books coming every now and then, we love them forever
