The Princess Diaries, Volume IX: Princess Mia

The ninth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot.

Mia has been invited to speak at a gala for Domina Rei, an elite society of powerful businesswomen. But what could she possibly have to say? Michael has broken up with her, her bff Lilly won't speak to her, and her parents are forcing her to see a therapist. Even J.P.'s efforts to cheer Mia up (he's being really sweet!) aren't helping.

Just when things couldn't get worse, Mia discovers a long—forgotten diary of a teenage princess of Genovia. It could be just the inspiration Mia needs to write her speech—but what it reveals might change everything.

Princess Mia is the ninth book in the beloved, bestselling series that inspired the feature film starring Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews. Beautifully repackaged in paperback, this title will appeal to new readers as well as fans looking to update their collection. 

A royal diary. A royal mess.

• Friendship Breakup: What do you do when your BFF won’t even speak to you? Mia has to navigate high school without her partner-in-crime, Lilly, by her side.
• Coping with a Breakup: Michael is gone, and Mia is a mess. It doesn’t help that her parents are forcing her to see a therapist about it.
• A Royal Secret: In a dusty corner of the palace, Mia finds a diary from a past Genovian princess. What it reveals about her family’s history could change her future forever.
• The Sweet Guy Friend: J.P. is trying his best to cheer Mia up, and he’s being really sweet about it. But is friendship all he has on his mind?
