welcome back to júlia ( @harryhoney-bee ) and sarah read the princess diaries. we just finished the fourth book, princess in waiting so here we are out thoughts! (ALL MEMES ARE JÚLIA’S. SHE’S THE FUNNY ONE OUT OF US):
- okay so solid start. mia’s poems still make us wanna cry but they’re getting better. solid glow up.
- mia describes michael as her heart’s breath. now we don’t have time to unpack ALL of that, but what the actual fuck does HEART’S BREATH MEAN. heart beat?? heart string?? HEART BREATH?! we literally cannot think of what this means. i mean if she insists on using “breath”, why can’t she say lungs? go to therapy.
- michael when mia forgot his birthday:
- the way michael talks to mia… swoon. SWOOOOOOON.
- no but lilly do be making everything about her. mia’s movie comes out and she just thinks about herself…. uh ok
- can we take a moment to applaud miss cabot for including the princess diaries movie into the book. yeah she used lilly to get her frustrations out about it, but let’s be real: miss cabot is shady and we LOVE it. (júlia hasn’t seen the movie, but we’ll watch it together later)
- helen if she finds out the baby is a boy:
- WHEN TINA IS TRYING TO TELL HER HER OWN BOY PROBLEMS AND MIA’S LIKE “… oh. hmm.. anyways MICHAEL–”
- mia is an actual psychopath and needs medical care. she wishes grandmere were to be run over by a cab driver…. jail.
- but then at the end she wants to make grandmere happy and goes to the ball so i guess she has SOME brain cells
- not mia saying michael is the reason for living. PLEASE. it’s the emotional dependency for me
- in an alternative universe, lars and wahim are lovers, but in this universe they’re just friend soulmates
- NOT MIA SAYS SHE LOVES HER CAT AND MICHAEL MORE THAN HER OWN PARENTS. MENTO IWWNESS-
- every single voicemail michael leaves is so endearing and we want to die. also, the fact that people heard that voicemail before mia… EMBARRASSING
- NOT MICHAEL SAYING THE WRONG PHRASE IN FRENCH. HE DOES HAVE FAULTS!!!
- (this triggered a long discussion between us about how lonely we are and how we just want to be loved, so thanks michael)
- sarah: put him on his knees
- júlia: not him. it. men are useful ornaments (she sounds so much like grandmere here)
- speaking of grandmere, are we not gonna talk about how similar grandmere and lilly are? that’s frightening. they’re both assholes to mia for her own wellbeing. lilly calls grandmere crazy for taking mia out of class for shopping as is she wasn’t convinced that the school administration was out to get her because there was a fire drill during her walkout
- LINUXRULZ!!!!!!!!!!! ONE STEP CLOSER TO SKINNERBX!!!!!!!
- NOT GRANDMERE TELLING MIA TO GIVE A MAN CANDY. PLEAAAAASE
- “Of course he says he doesn’t want anything, that I am the only thing he needs (!!!!!!!!!!) and that he will see me in eight days, and that is the best present anyone could get him.” bye. we’re ded. the bar is SO FUCKING HIGH thanks to mike over here.
- grandmere never told her husband she loved him. okay but this just proves that there are worst simps in the world than michael. prince grandpere was the biggest simp. and can you imagine being married to clarisse. i’d jump off the brooklyn bridge-
- michael’s love language: reciting star wars lines instead of saying i love you
- “We discussed calling Michael’s band The Man, but then dismissed it as having possible misogynistic undertones.“ oh…..he’s a feminist <3
- michael’s hand on the car and the other around mia’s arm as he kisses her…… so firm….. so patrick swayze……….. we need a moment. WHATTHEFUCK!!
- okay here’s a theory i have: nobody ever tells kenny that mia is now dating michael. let’s talk about this cuz michael and mia don’t act like a couple in school, and the only people who know they’re dating are the people who saw them making out at the dance and the moscovitz’s doorman. so how would kenny know? (we’ll discuss this more when we get to book 7.5)
- this is the third time the guy who hates it when they put corn in the chili is mentioned. júlia, who is a first time reader, thinks he’s a killer. sarah says he’s worse.
- literally nobody but mia would think that loving someone and being in love with someone is different. the way i wanna smack her-
- "Shameeka is really good at science, on account of her being a Pisces.” WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
- no but shameeka is doing hot girl shit
- tina being sad and using blue font made us fucking sob what the fuck that’s so FUNNY. WHY IS SHE USING BLUE FONT ;ERGN;JKGNKJSER
- michael brings his game boy to school. no i don’t want to talk about this
- “Mia, I love you, remember?” roughly translates to “i love you dumb ass”
- not but michael’s fucking patience with mia… it’s crazy. we wouldn’t have lasted this long <3
- a final note: jane eyre sucks and i can’t ever finish it no matter how hard i try
