Princess Diaries Four-Book Set (Princess Diaries; Princess in the spotlight; Princess In Love; Princess in Waiting) For a limited time get four of Meg Cabot’s books in the Princess Diaries series, including Cabott’s latest installment, Princess in Waiting.
Meg Cabot was born on February 1, 1967, during the Chinese astrological year of the Fire Horse, a notoriously unlucky sign. Fortunately she grew up in Bloomington, Indiana, where few people were aware of the stigma of being a fire horse -- at least until Meg became a teenager, when she flunked freshman Algebra twice, then decided to cut her own bangs. After six years as an undergrad at Indiana University, Meg moved to New York City (in the middle of a sanitation worker strike) to pursue a career as an illustrator, at which she failed miserably, forcing her to turn to her favorite hobby--writing novels--for emotional succor. She worked various jobs to pay the rent, including a decade-long stint as the assistant manager of a 700 bed freshmen dormitory at NYU, a position she still occasionally misses.
She is now the author of nearly fifty books for both adults and teens, selling fifteen million copies worldwide, many of which have been #1 New York Times bestsellers, most notably The Princess Diaries series, which is currently being published in over 38 countries, and was made into two hit movies by Disney. In addition, Meg wrote the Mediator and 1-800-Where-R-You? series (on which the television series, Missing, was based), two All-American Girl books, Teen Idol, Avalon High, How to Be Popular, Pants on Fire, Jinx, a series of novels written entirely in email format (Boy Next Door, Boy Meets Girl, and Every Boy's Got One), a mystery series (Size 12 Is Not Fat/ Size 14 Is Not Fat Either/Big Boned), and a chick-lit series called Queen of Babble.
Meg is now writing a new children's series called Allie Finkle's Rules for Girls. Her new paranormal series, Abandon, debuts in Summer of 2011.
Meg currently divides her time between Key West, Indiana, and New York City with a primary cat (one-eyed Henrietta), various back-up cats, and her husband, who doesn't know he married a fire horse. Please don't tell him.
I like these original book covers better than the new, updated version. So far, I have only read the first four books of this series but my favorite book so far is the third one.
This book gives an idea of being-princess-is-not-that-easy. True. To be a princess is not to live happily ever after. It is to change what you can change and make this world a better place to live at.
ni buku yang gw baca n beli waktu sma, dan lagi lagi hilang karena dipinjam dan gak dibalikkan lagi ke gw hiks hiks...btw buku ni kocak abis gw paling suka kalo michael diceritain,bawaannya keren banget...tapi pas liat filmnya rada kecewa..michael nya gak sekeren harapan..fiuh
Series that will keep you laughing, wishing, crying, hoping, and cheering along with Mia. You'll really be into Mia's dairy, it's like you're Mia herself.
I really hate every single book in this series--they all read like an idle 1997 IM chat session between two 13 year-olds. No matter how old Mia gets it's still the same tone, no growth or maturity.
