Cute, fun, quick

When Valerie's mother announces not only that she wants a divorce, but that she is leaving her husband for another woman, life is turned upside-down. But it isn't long before Valerie discovers dealing with her friends' reactions and working through her own shock are small potatoes compared to the decision she must make: a) live with mom and her new vegetarian girlfriend, or b) move to Schwerinborg with her father, who has just been hired as protocol chief for the royal family. Well, what teenager wouldn't give living in a palace in Europe a try? So Valerie makes the move and is soon unknowingly befriending Schwerinborg's resident Prince Charming, Georg. But can an American teenage girl live up to royal standards? This book was cute and fun, and I think it would appeal to many fans of the popular books for teenagers by authors such as Meg Cabot and Louise Rennison. The fictional foreign country isn't entirely convincing at times, but it doesn't really make this pretty short book any less enjoyable. I'm looking forward to the sequel.

Cute and fun teen romance.

Fifteen-year-old Valerie's life is turned upside down when her mom decides to leave her dad for another woman. And because Valerie's dad worked for the very politically conservative President of the United States, he now has to find a new job in order to avoid a scandal. He gets a position as protocol chief to the royal family of Schwerinborg, a small European country. Rather than live with her mom and her girlfriend, Valerie decides to go to Schwerinborg with her dad. At first she thinks it's a terrible mistake -- until she meets Georg, the very cute prince of Schwerinborg. But could a prince ever really fall in love with Valerie? Teens who love light romances are sure to enjoy this fun, fluffy tale. It is sure to appeal to fans of Meg Cabot's books, and I can't wait to read the upcoming sequel. It's not the most original story in the world, but it's still really enjoyable and cute.

I loved it!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I started reading this book I thought it was a little slow. But after I'd read more, I really started to get into it. It fuses comedy, drama and romance all in one. The story begins with Valerie learning that her mother is gay and wants to move in with her girlfriend, Gabrielle. Soon after, her father tells her that she has two choices. 1. she can move to a small German speaking country called Schwerinborg (which, no seems to know how to pronounce, calling it Smorgasbord instead). Or 2. she can move in with her mom and her vegan girlfriend, Gabrielle. After much thought of how her friends and every one she knows would find out about her mom, she chooses to live with her dad. There, she learns the German word for exit is "ausfahrt", that the McChicken sandwiches here have a strange onion sauce on them, and that at the end of every fairy tale, not every prince falls for the princess.

YES!!!!
