Review

Remember the Nation of Genovia and Princess Mia? Well this is book 2 of a spin-off series that introduces Olivia (Grace Clarisse Mignonette Harrison) as half sister to Mia. The story is written as diary entries, and revolves around Mia's up coming wedding and the "big" plans Grandmere has for it. And to complicate things more Mia's mother is marrying Olivia's father! Olivia finds the move to Genovia, all the wedding excitement and planning plus the added new relatives, one of who is her snobby cousin Luisa, (who cause all kinds of difficulties for Olivia) and starting a new school to be a bit overwhelming. There and many antics and goings on that create plenty of turmoil and chaos. Things are looking a bit disastrous on several fronts - from iguanas, to wedding cakes to paw prints on a bridesmaid dress! But, a wedding disaster is avoided by the color purple!

This is a great series for the young readers who are out growing books like the Nancy Clancey and Stella Batts series. A fun read!

Overall Book Score: very good
