I became fond of Meg Cabot after reading the first volume of "The Princess Diaries." I liked the second volume, too. Even the third. (After that, they got iffy.) I liked her novel "The Boy Next Door," which I actually downloaded as PDFs from her website long before it saw print. So when I saw this book on the shelf at the library, I picked it up, thinking it would be a quick, entertaining read.
Well, it was quick, anyway. To be fair, it was entertaining too, and I might h...more

Total fluff. The boy series are so ridiculously quick to read. It's all emails and diaries and silliness. I almost have a hard time believing Meg Cabot has time to publish all these different book "series" she has, but then I remember the content and think it wouldn't be that hard.

OK, I actually laughed out loud a few times here. Again, lovely distraction. Nothing really insightful or unpredictable. Just mindless, entertaining fluff.

This is the kind of book that makes me want to write one of my own -- not because it's so great, but because I think I could do so much better.

Chicklit. Like The Boy Next Door, this is another one of Cabot's books that's written entirely on, like, bus tickets and sandwich wrappers. This one uses emails and journal entries to tell the story of Jane Harris as she accompanies her best friend, her best friend's fiance, and the fiance's best friend to Italy so that the happy couple can elope.

A provocative title, if ever there was one!!! But don’t dismiss this book as some sort of sleaze-fest...it is actually a sweet and sassy urban fairy-tale, courtesy the wonderful Meg Cabot!

wuah! salah satu buku yang gw baca berulang2..sru banget!
masih sama dengan gaya di Boys Next Door, disini juga menggunakan gaya bercerita via email, via surat2an, diary serta PDA.
ceritanya berkisar tentang seorang kartunis ternama perempuan, Jane Harris yang menemani sahabatnya Holly Caputo kawin lari di Italia dengan seorang dokter bernama Mark yang membawa sahabatnya juga seorang jurnalis & novelis ternama, Cal Langdon.

Jadi saksi kawin lari adalah hal yang ‘spektakuler’ bagi Jane Harris. Gimana nggak, ia akan terbang ke sebuah tempat di Italia, diminta oleh sahabatnya, Holy Caputo untuk jadi saksi pernikahannya dengan Mark Levine. Jane Harris, seorang kartunis yang menciptakan tokoh Wondercat, sudah mempersiapkan sebuah kado untuk mereka berdua, yaitu sebuah ‘Diary Perjalanan Holy Caputo dan Mark Levine’. Diary ini akan diberikan setelah rangkaian kawin lari mereka selesai.

Despite the questionable title (not one I really wanted to read out in public), this is a totally clean read. It wasn't nearly as fun as the Boy Next Door, but it was a fun read anyway. The leading man wasn't nearly as endearing as John Trent. What a great review I'm managing to write. Never wait too long after finishing your book to write about it..especially if you have my (lack of) long term memory.

I really liked the style of this book. I generally don't enjoy books written in journal or e-mail style, but 'Every Boy's Got One' was really well written. It was my first Meg Cabot book to read, and I have to say I will definitely be checking out more of her works. I was a bit bored in the beginning of the book, wondering when it would get good, and it didn't really pick up until about 3/4 of the way through, but having gotten through it I really enjoyed it.

This is a funny modern romance story pairing the Maid of Honor and the Best Man of a couple eloping in Italy. I was better able to deal with annoyance of the story being written in e-mail/journal form (this time - as opposed to the 2 prior books in this series) since some of the journal entries actually reflected some of the conversations. Quick read, but good for laughs!

jadi pengen ke itali!!! someday, somehow... it will add to my wish list, then...
sebenernya... tadinya mau kasih "really like it"... karena makin terakhir ceritanya makin bagus...
tapi gara2 ada kalimat gini... "that sign was probably just scam to throw off the people with dumb, pretty problems like lost passport, or whatever..."
g jadi merasa tersindir... kan passport gue hilang, walopun pada akhirnya "muncul" lagi!!! tapi g pikir2 lagi... kayaknya bener ...more

I loved this book and the ingenious way to was written. Told all through emails, notes, diary entires and telegrams this story is a testament to how we communicate in the 21st century. And since most fo it is written as personal journal entires it is almost as if you are reaidng the characters' inner monolgue. And the storyline is wonderful, especially upon discovering it is a mostly true tale about who the author herself eloped in Italy! A truly lovely and entertaining read and I would high...more

So far this book is kind of strange but also cute. It' written in a journal form by a cartoonist, Jane Harris, who's on her way to Rome with her best freind Julie and her fiance Mark for them to elope. It's the first time she's ever been out of the country and she is way precautious. Her plane ride is totally ruined considering she has to sit next to "cell phone guy" aka Cal aka Marks best friend, aka a super smart goodlooking journalist that is totally rude. The two can't seem to get ...more
