Okay, can I just say this is the most hilarious book I’ve ever read? No, not because it cracked me up on every line (although it is pretty funny in places)…I mean the premise. ONLY Meg Cabot could get a publisher to say, “Wow, what a great idea for a series!” and then let her do it. I won’t be a spoiler here and tell you what the “hook” is for this book, but I will say that if anyone besides Meg Cabot tried to pitch this book to an agent or an editor, they would be the office joke, for sure. It would be the query that the agent posted on their blog as so hilarious that they just had to share.

And yet…Meg Cabot makes it work (if you’re willing to take a pretty big leap with her). She took this crazy premise and laid the groundwork for it so that by the time you got to the explanation of what was what, you were already so invested in the character and the story that you just can’t help but say, “Okay…crazy as that seems, I’ll buy it.”

I seriously would’ve loved to be the fly on the wall when she pitched this (or whatever she does…maybe she’s so high up the food chain she just turns in manuscripts and they write her a check) because I’m willing to be the first reaction was, “Haha. Okay, so what is your next book REALLY going to be about?”

And the thing I find so funny is I CAN HARDLY WAIT FOR THE SEQUEL!!! Out May 5th. I loved this crazy book. Seriously. You must read it. And if you have and your comments would be spoilers, just email me instead. I have to know if everyone else loved this as much as I did!
