THE PRINCESS DIARIES

Meg Cabot
Harper Collins
Young Adult
ISBN: 0380814021
304 pages
As the hilariously funny tale called The Princess Diaries begins, Mia
Thermopolis is just a regular high school freshman at Albert Einstein High
School. Well, as regular as you can be when you live in a loft in downtown New
York with your flighty artist Mom. And as regular as you can be when your
best friend is Lilly, a punky and spunky militant who produces her ownTV
show.
As readers can guess from the title, this book takes the form of a diary,
written by Mia. Over the pan of a month, she relates her daily woes and
embarrassments in heart breaking detail. As with most teenaged girls, Mia
thinks she is hopeless, looks-wise. She's tall --- 5’9" --- and klutzy, and not so
gifted in the chest department.
Then there is school. One of Mia’s biggest problems is the fact she is flunking
Algebra and, to make matters worse, her Mom has begun dating her teacher.
Gross.
In the boy department, the cutest one in school has the locker next to hers, but
doesn't even know Mia exists, even as his snooty girlfriend Lana, a popular
cheerleader, torments her. And to top it off, Mia is developing some sort of
weird crush on Michael, Lilly’s computer nerd brother.
Then one day, Mia finds out she is a princess. Okay, I know that doesn’t sound
bad to most girls, but Mia hates the idea instantly. How does this fairy tale
come true? Her father is ruler of the principality of Genovia and since Mia is
his only child, she is next in line to the throne. Her dad sends in the big guns
to convince Mia that being a princess is what she is meant to do: her
formidable grandmother comes to New York to give Mia "Princess Lessons".
And as the word spreads around Albert Einstein High School that Mia is
royalty, her life just gets more crazy.
The ending of The Princess Diaries is a twisty one and will leave you jonesing
for more stories of Mia and the rest of her friends.

CAPTAIN PHILLIPS
Captain Phillips is an upcoming 2013 American biographical action thriller film

directed by Paul Greengrass based upon the book, A Captain's Duty: Somali
Pirates, Navy SEALs, and Dangerous days at Sea, by Richard Phillips with
Stephan Tatty, and starring Tom Hanks. It is produced by Scott Rudin, Dana
Brunetti, and Michael De Luca. The film tells a biopic of merchant mariner
Captain Richard Phillips, who was taken hostage for several days by Somali
Pirates when the container ship Maersk Alabama which sailed from southern
Oman drown along the coast of Somalia and then to Kenya was hijacked in
2009.
Captain Richard Phillips (Tom Hanks), a veteran merchant mariner, still lives in
his native New England, and he's a plainspoken family man full of anxiety
about the economically bleak new world his kids are facing. When his wife
(Chaterine Keener) drops him off at the airport, we can see reverse her. The
film then cuts to Somalia, a land of dust and poverty, where the pirates are
recruited for their mission as if they were migrant farm workers lining up to be
chosen for that day's labor. Greengrass doesn't have to fill in much about the
violent, chaotic breakdown of Somalia to let us know that these men have little
choice.
The film does not generate quite the same level of excruciating suspense as
some of Greengrass' previous triumphs, but it nonetheless holds us hostage
as it proceeds. As for the four Somali immigrants, they are remarkably
effective in their first professional acting gigs.
