A review by brindha
Airhead, by Meg Cabot
1.0
I I was actually a fan of Meg Cabot as a teenager. She had a way of telling of a story simply, but keeping you reading till the end anyway.
So when I was looking for a mild and casual read, I thought this book might be interesting.
Alright, the book's called 'Airhead' and you would think I would consider myself fairly warned.
But oh-my-god, I wish Cabot hadn't kidded herself that it was suspenseful to not even start the story for a hundred pages!
It takes 60 pages before the main character and it takes another 20[yes, a total of 80 freaking pages] before she is told that . I think if she had opened with these details, we would be kindly putting up with all the crap about dogs licking her face and guys holding her hand.
Two more books of this? I'm out.
I checked Goodreads to see if other people feel like me, and I found most of the plot points in the reviews actually tolerable. Except
Like I said, I'm out.
