You guys are the most heartwarming sisters. The March sisters could never. How old were you both when the books first came out? And, who's the older sister of you two?

Pretty Purple Polka Dots Hahah Soph says “we ARE better than the March sisters, BITE me Jo” 😂 I’m the older one and I guess we must have been about 8 and 10 when the books first came out over here
Seeing a lot of positivity in the comments and I agree with so many others that this video makes me so happy. The giggling, the theory-swapping, the sleep deprivation, all amazing.

This video made me want to binge a childhood series. I grew up on Gossip Girl and it would be really fun to just power through those in a day or two.

Truly my favorite video I’ve ever seen on the internet. The nostalgia, the joy, the laughs and of course the most adorable and “goodest”dog in the whole world!! I was about to fall asleep and now I’m hyped up and wondering if there’s a series on my shelves I should binge read right now. I genuinely think this video will help me reach my most self-actualized self and encourage me to become a more joyful person because of the childlike joy just radiating out of this vlog!! Thanks Emma!! 💕👑

Anyone else always come back to this video because it's so happy?
I’m not a commenter usually, but I’m living for this content and just wanted to let you know! It can’t be easy to make (mostly psychologically haha), so I really appreciate it! You made me want to reread both this series (that I don’t think I ever finished?) and a series of unfortunate events (that I finished, but can only remember reading books 1-6). Thank you anyway ❤️
Your readathon vlogs are always so entertaining and your banter with Sophie brings it to a whole other level
I know these videos must screw over your life a little and be kind of exhausting but they are so much fun to watch!!! Definitely some of my favorites, although I watch every thing you put out.

This has become my comfort watch. I've watched this video many times already. Whenever I feel down i watch this to make me feel better or get me out of a reading slump
This was so so much fun! I would watch even more videos of you and your sister doing buddy reads :D
Note 3: the commitment to bringing the book with you on the walk to Tesco that is literally 3 mins away, while it is raining, is truly amazing.

I just heard about the adult Princess diaries book and have been thinking about reading it as it was one of my favourite series as a teenager. Glad it still holds up! The 3am-3am seems to work much better for you or maybe it was because you had a buddy 👍 Btw FYI I read the ones with the covers like your give me five edition

ok update: i did read the first book today (it was hilarious) and in my version (which i think is the american one) it says she has size ten shoes - so i guess they converted the shoe size for the uk edition? which i thought it was interesting
This might be the best video that I have ever seen in my whole entire life. I binge read all these books last year when I was sick and when I told my friends about it, I felt so judged 😂. Wish I had a sister like yours to enjoy the experience with xx
I watched this video like more than a dozen times( is that normal) and still it’s so wholesome.i really wanna read this series and ordered mine. Can’t wait.

I come back to this video a few times in a year and recently remembered it. It brings me so much comfort and you guys make this seem so much fun!
OMG this is one of the best videos I've ever watched. I hope you and Sophie and you do more vlogs together. Not even 24 hour ones but just reading books together in a day. I love this. There is nothing I want to do more than to have a read all day with you two!! 💜
Aww I've only just come across it and I loved it. So nostalgic. I'm 6 years older than my sister but I gave her all my Princess Diaries books to read when she was a preteen. I don't think I ever finished the series but not sure where I stopped. As you were going though I kept saying to myself "okay this is where I stopped" but then you'd mention something that I remembered. Thanks for the nostalgia
I loved this so much!! I never actually read the Princess Diaries series, but this made me want to!! I also just love that your sister did this with you, it must have been such a better experience that way. It certainly made for entertaining watching! Glad y'all had a fun time! Can't wait to watch more of your videos!
I come back to this video frequently💕this relationship is simply THE BEST
This is probably the 15th time I am watching videos in the past 2 weeks. You guys are full of sunshine! You make me so happy!
I used this video as a reward for getting through work and exercising and it was so worth it. Thank you for all the hard work you put into your videos and for keeping us entertained! ❤️
4:37 "i fancy michael" we all do!! 💗
I love your series readathon, it really inspire me to take up a series myself and reread, I know it must be hard (physical and mental) but I and a lot of other loves these videos, please make more of them. And I loved that you did it with someone else. I watched this and the series of unfortunate events video several times🥰❤️ you are so funny together😘 love from Norway 🇳🇴❤️
My new favorite series on KZread☺️☺️ also your sister is the best Much love✌🏻
This was such a treat! I just love watching your 24-hours readathons 🤗 and hope for more to come!
I find the 24 hours reading books so interesting I don’t know why but I do.
I read this book series at age 7-9 and I still have them. I got them from our local vinnnies (An Australian Catholic op shop) and they were the ones with the cover that you showed like take five and after eight.
maybe the real "guy who hates it when they put corn in the chili" is the friends we made along the way

This was amazing! One of my favorite videos of all time! You guys are the sweetest sisters ever! I've only ever read the first book (but I've looked up spoilers to see how it compares to the movies) and I loved it and always say I'm going ot read the rest when I get the time... now I'm going to make the time.
loved it so much!! you two are so funny and seem like the coolest sisters ever!! I cant wait to read these and hopefully love it as much as you guys did!!
You two are the funniest pair doing a readathon - loved it!

I've been binge watching so many of your videos after discovering your channel this week. Your videos make me smile so much, so thank you for creating such amazing content
omg binging all your videos after discovering your channel two days ago and you and your sister are the big sisters i’ve never had
Such a fabulous video - this was one of my FAVOURITE series when I was a teen. You're both so warm, loved the vibe :)
every once in a while I come back to rewatch this because the vibes are immaculate and u guys are hilarious 🥰
This is my comfort video ❤️
This was so fun! About a month ago I suddenly felt a deep need to reread this series and this video has definitely increased that!
Read all of the princess diaries books including the novellas and the 11th book over the last week and I have no regrets. So glad I found this video!!!!!
Loved watching this video SO SO much. An ode to the teenager in all of us! The sisterly bond! Such a fun video, please do moreeeee!
This was magical and so fun to watch! Thank you for making my quarantine much brighter!
Whenever I’m feeling gross and sad I rewatch all the readathons with her sister and this one is my absolute favorite 😅💗
I love the general deliriousness of this, you guys!
This was SO fun to watch and i would definitely watch another vlog with your sister!! This is one of the best videos ever!
This is possibly my favorite video ever. You two are so hilarious!
I had all the number titles too! I like those so much more than what they changed to, especially as it made it easy to keep track of the series. Also this video was so fun to watch!!
This was such a nostalgia fest, loved it! I started re-reading the first book when I heard you were doing this, still working on it but loving it! Fat Louie and self-actualization forever!
Note 6: wow what a roller coaster at the end of which guy you care about. But beautiful to end on: I love friendship
i love these videos with your sister ❤️ please do more cause they are getting me through quarantine!!
I adored these books when I was younger, and I adored this video too! Such excellent content -- please keep forcing yourself to stay awake to make these amazing videos, haha. No but seriously, get some sleep too. (Oh, also the books had totally different titles in America. I can't remember them all, but I know book 2 was Princess in the Spotlight. They all had titles that began with "Princess.")
This vlog was exactly what I needed right now. I must pick up the first book. Thank you ladies!

I loooooved those books when I was a teenager, those and the Angus, thongs series were a MAJOR inspiration for all of my diaries written between 11 and 18 (i wrote like 9 diaries in that span of time). I always wrote like i was very sassy, which i wasnt, so most of the entries just sound mean, i sometimes made stuff up about other people to make the diaries more interesting if they would be published at one point in my life (which i was sure about that it would happen, since i wanted to be a famous actor or writer). The books are called like this in Germany: 1: Suddenly a Princess! 2: Power, Princess! 3: Princess looking for Prince 4: Your performance, Princess! 5: Princess in Pink 6: The stage is yours, Princess! 7: Party Princess 8: Don't Panic, Princess! 9: So embarrassing, Princess! 10: Your Prince of Hearts, Princess! SO weird that not all of these have an exclamation point in the end...
Oh my god I am so in love with this. Also this now makes me want to do this with my sister... It wont happen but it would be so nice! Also I read them with the same covers as your first reading (the it takes two etc titles). I didnt even know they changed???? Why?? Omfg the reference to the movie I REMEMBER SO CLEARLY when I read this series as a kid oh my gosh
I realise this is an older video but it’s absolutely fantastic. Your giddy and delirious with lack of sleep. Thankyou xxx
This is the first video I’ve watched of yours and I loved it! It made me want to pull out a book and read ❤️
This is quite literally friend goals
I have watched this video for at least five times. I love it so much. It makes my day everytime. Thank you so much for this video 🤗
I adore the Princess Diaries series and have re-read them as an adult and think they still hold up. Reading them was the first time I understood how a book could be funny -from word choice to paragraph structure - they were all tools in landing a joke or moment that made you laugh out loud. Please do another video on the final book when Mia is an adult!
Im in love w your reading vlogs!!! Lol u two r so fun 💕💕
This was fantastic! Your sister is lovely.
I loved this so much! I'm about the same age as you and from the UK so seeing your original editions was so nostalgic (and they are clearly so much better than the new editions lol).
This video is so positive 😍 it instantly makes you happy 😃
I saved the video to finish watching after I finish reading!!! I am so excited I love these videos. You inspire me to do a 24 hour read a thon.
Okay, this was like the most fun sleepover ever! Loved it so much!
I came across your channel a few days ago and honestly your videos have really motivated me to read more. I used to read loads when I was younger but haven’t done anywhere near as much in recent years 😢 Also, your reading speed is absolute goals. I’ve always been so slow 😂

You remind me so much of my sister and I. We both have such a lovely relationship... 😊The only thing I miss about it is that she doesn`t like reading while you both do. 😂You're so lucky! Loved the video 💕
That was so entertaining! Who'd have thought watching people read could be so much fun. And I'm so impressed that you read them all and managed to stay awake for 24 hours. I don't think I could do either!
This was SO fun to watch, you guys remind me of me and my bestie. I loved this!!
I love the whole series,I think my favourite one is the 3rd one. in French they're called differently so and there are actually an 11th one
I’ve watched this video 3 times in the last month. Such a heartwarming video and makes me smile every time ☺️☺️
I love your 24 hours readathon. Can't wait for more.
this looked like so much fun! I think if you ever do another 24h read-a-thon, you should always do them with someone else together, it seems like you had a lot more fun this time :)
Quite possibly my favourite thing ever... I think I read the first book in this series ages ago, but now I want to pick it up and read them all!! I also have an overwhelming desire to do a 24 hour readathon with my sister...
Love your 24 hour readathons!! Can't wait for the next one!!
The books I read in the USA growing up the 2nd book was called Princess in the Spotlight. I loved these books, this makes me want to reread them
I read these over and over growing up w/ my sister. What a fun video 💞

I read all 10 when they came out and loved them! I didn’t even realise there was a new one, I totally want to read it now!
