Approx length: many books, but I'm promoing Royal Wedding in particular, which is a pretty quick read.
Where to find it: Bookstores, libraries, etc
What is it, in summary?: Mia, as as an adult, still dating Michael and having a really stressful period so she starts journaling again.
What do you love about it?: PD books age like fine wine, and Royal Wedding is just as good as the originals. Mia is as weird as ever, and the people around her remain as funny and weird as she is. Grandmere is still kicking, and there are two unexpected ships that had me losing it.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: Epistolary-style (texting, emails, journaling, etc) for the two aformentioned ships, but one in particular. I don't want to spoil them for folks who don't want to see, but you can see a little more in my letter here: https://docs.google.com/document/u/3/d/e/2PACX-1vR8rRtCdQkT0VPYvM28-8_SSv78xAdbNaeEyhUmYaX00YsEBCvLXFFl187_ynyZHM5kNOcq_dzOYYNm/pub
Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?: Yes! This post is really a promo for people who read PD when they were younger but haven't read Royal Wedding. Rereading the series isn't necessary because RW does a great job of reminding you who's who, and the ship I most want is confined to this book in particular.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Pre-book death, stalking/anonymous threats (unrelated to the aforementioned death)
