    <body><![CDATA[This was my first Meg Cabot book. The writing could have been worse, but I did get a little frustrated with some of her quirks, such as saying, &quot;I went, 'Sure,'&quot; instead of &quot;I said, 'Sure.'&quot; I know people say that out loud, but it should not be written.<br/>This was also the mos...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/66654451">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Dear Meg Cabot<br/>Your books are so interesting and creative. My favorite series of yours is “The Princess Diaries”.  The book “All American Girl” had so many twists that you really didn’t know what would happen next. It always seemed to be a surprise. I have noticed that in your books t...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/45510203">more...</a>]]></body>

I wanted to try her writing in a one off book, before I dived into a series. <br/><br/>She wrote Sam's character very well.

    <body><![CDATA[Meg Cabot has officially made it on to my list of top ten favorite writers.<br/><br/>This book was surprisingly good. DON'T LOOK AT THE BACK OF THE BOOK FOR DESCRIPTION. It gave me the impression that it was going to be a crappy book.
