Book Review:The Boy Next Door

Another novel to be read by Meg Cabot. As most of you might have noticed that I love to read every and each novel written by Meg Cabot. One of the latest books I read by her was THE BOY NEXT DOOR. It is an old book. It was published 2002 when Meg Cabot used to be Meggin Cabot.

Like most of Meg Cabot's books, The Boy Next Door was funny and romantic. But the book had a different style of writing. It consisted of bunch of emails sent from and to the characters. I know. It doesn’t sound like a book.  But that’s the exciting part about this specific book by Meg Cabot.



For example:

**********
To: Mel Fuller melissa.fuller@thenyjournal.com
From: Nadine Wilcock Nadine.wilcock@thenyjournal.com
Subject :I hope at the very least

You let him pay for the Chinese food

Nad.

**********
Get the image now. It all relies  on emails.

The summary: Mel, whowas the main character from my opinion, find her neighbor  who was 82 facedown on living room carpet. She, immediately, called the police and waited until the ambulance came. Then Mel tried to contact any relative who by any chance knows her neighbor. After research, she found her nephew (Max). Max was a famous photographer who ran away with a hot super modal. Ok, so if you get to choose between caring for your aunt or a super modal. Which one would you pick? Many of you will say a super modal and that exactly what Max did. But max wants to show his aunt, if she ever wakes up from a coma, that he really care about her, so he decided to send his friend to his aunt’s apartment to replace him. John arrived to the neighborhood pretending to be Max. And its happens when you least except it. John, who was pretending to be Max, fall in love with Mel who thinks he was Max. At the end Mel discovers that John is not Max and she will take some series action toward him and she will also solve the mystery behind her neighbor’s attack.

You have to read the book to know who tried to kill the 82 year old woman. I mentioned him in my blog but again you have to read to figure out.

I personally love the book. It was great and a whole different style.

Books: Princess forever

Meg Cabot ,one of the best New York Times sellers, had  released her lastest* book from the great series "princess diaries". The book was named PRINCESS FOREVER. Maybe because it was the last book from the princess diaries saga so it meant that she will be princess by name and meaning forever?

Summary of the past eight books:
We saw the naive girl who looked very ugly and not that popular but when she knows that she is a princess EVERYTHING changes around her. People who used to bully her wanted to become her freinds. She lost her true friends and her true lover. She is distracted by all these people around her who pretend they care about her and she couldnt find her true self anymore. Her mother get married to her teacher and then had rocky.

The last book of the saga is the last year of Mia's high school so imagine how busy she could be.
Like any other girl, Mia wants to get into her dream college, go to the prom with the person she really likes, have a great graduation and Genovia's first election would go fairly.

We always knew the fact that Mia loved Micheal all her life. but then Micheal had to leave to Japen to be one of the important scientists. All that time Micheal was in Japen, Mia had dated J.P. In the last book Micheal comes back looking even more stunnung than before. What will Mia do? She has a choice between J.P and Micheal!!!

If you have read the princess diaries from before, you would have known the format of the book is writen by. Well if you didnt know anything about the book, let me tell about the format. The whole saga is like a diary of a teenager girl. Ever wonder what you should write in a diary or how it should look like? Well, Princess daires saga is written in a diary format which tells us lots of things about the character. she likes writing!

After Micheal had left, Mia started reading historical romance novel so she can write one herself. She does write an amazing novel which reflect someone's story in her life. Meg cabot decided to write Mia's novel ad get it actually published. It is the novel I previewed from before on my blog and its called "Ransom my Heart."

From my opinion I think the last part was the best.. We see Mia actually getting mature, still lies alot but realizes it's a bad habit.
This novel is about an ambition girl and nevert give up. It has a happy ending which I think many peole will like it. Also the book is funny, really funny.

The worse thing is that to read PRINCESS FOREVER you must have read the nine 8 parts from before. I know it will feel like ever but whatever...lol

Books: Ransom my Heart

Bye bye "Avalon high"...hello "Ransom my heart". Ransom my heart is one of Meg Cabot's latest books. The book is suppose to be written by Mia (one of Meg's fiction character in the princess series). The book resembles Mia's life in a way. The book was written in third person narration which is something we are not used to from Meg Cabot. I think the book was very tense and full of emotions and romance. the novel is a historical romance which brings us back in time in complete statisification.

The story was about a girl who had to ransom someone because her sister was pregnant and she wanted money to help her marry the man who got her pregnant. Finnula was the youngest in her family. She liked to hunt and never cared about girls stuff. Finnual went in the wild to search for a man to ransom him, but becuase all the men in the area know her she had to pick someone who is new to the village*. Finnula founds the perfect men(Hugo) who used to live in the village but lived for along time overseas and in britan. She leads him as a prisoner. During this period of time Finnula and Hugo both fell in love with each other.

Ransom My Heartwhat happens when Finnula know the true identity of Hugo? When she knows that she ,one day was going to marry his father? When she knows that he has a fifteen year old son from another woman?

I really recommend this book. It was very enjoyable
