Princess on the Brink

July 1, 2007
Gr 7-10- -Princess Mia is back in another adventure in this popular series. Listeners are treated to Mia's escapades during her junior year in high school. She had hoped that it was going to be her best year yet, but nothing turns out as she planned. Mia is taking a horrific course load, Lilly has signed her up to run for school president again, and she hears that her boyfriend Michael is going to move to Japan for a year...or more! While Mia knows this is an incredible opportunity for him, she thinks she has found a way to make him stay. Mia's life takes some unexpected turns as she tries to stem the tide of disaster. Clea Lewis is, once again, spot on as Princess Mia and her friends with melodramatic teen angst and confusion flowing easily; she nails the adults as well. As Mia matures, so do the situations she faces. With frank exchanges about sex, both with someone and alone, this audiobook is best suited for mature listeners who will eagerly await the next volume.-Stephanie A.
