I've had such a good time seeing Mia grow into her own, confident, (mostly) independent young Princess! This book ultimately ended the way I expected, however I did not see the twist of J.P's bad intentions coming at all until about halfway through this book. If this was the path Meg Cabot had planned for, I wish it would have been hinted at a bit more in the previous book. Because truly I thought J.P. was like the perfect guy for Mia (especially after Michael acted like a tool about the sex thing). I did enjoy Michael's return and I thought he showed great character development and in the end, of course he was perfect for Mia. I understand where Lilly was coming from in her animosity towards Mia in the last book and this one, but the rest of her upset just seemed like petty jealousy. It seems like she maybe turned a corner after they made up, but her development was not as prominent as other characters. Overall though, this book was enjoyable as all of the series has been. I can't wait to read the finale!
