Royal Wedding by Meg Cabot

Royal Wedding (Princess Diaries, #11)

by Meg Cabot

The first adult installment of the Princess Diaries series "follows Princess Mia and her Prince Charming as they plan their fairy tale wedding--but a few poisoned apples could turn this happily-ever-after into a royal nightmare"--Page 4 of cover.

For Princess Mia, the five years since college graduation have been a whirlwind of activity. Living in New York City, running her new teen community center, attending royal engagements. And speaking of engagements. Mia's longtime boyfriend Michael managed to clear both their schedules just long enough for an exotic (and very private) Caribbean island interlude where he popped the question! But now Mia has a scandal of majestic proportions to contend with: her grandmother's leaked 'fake' wedding plans to the press. And a scheming politico is trying to force Mia's father from the throne, all because of a royal secret that could leave Genovia without a monarch. Is Mia ready to wed-- and ready to rule as well?

I received a copy of this book from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review.

I was thrilled when I was approved to read the ARC of Royal Wedding. I have to admit that I haven't read every book in this series, but I have enjoyed all of the books by Meg Cabot that I have read. I don't believe it is necessary to have read all of the books in the "Princess Diaries" series in order to enjoy this one. It works pretty well as a standalone, even though I hope she continues to write books in this series!

As the title implies, Mia is engaged, and the book follows her as she plans her wedding, and deals with the everyday things that come with being Princess of Genovia. There are several major plot twists - two of which I figured out very early on, with the others coming as a complete surprise - so the book is filled with more than just wedding plans.

Royal Wedding was very well-written and highly amusing; I laughed out loud several times. I think fans of Meg Cabot and the Princess Diaries series will thoroughly enjoy this book, and I would highly recommend it!
