I’ve never read a Meg Cabot book and, let’s face it, I probably never will. Maybe I’ll read one sometime just to see. This isn’t meant as a criticism, there are plenty of good authors I don’t read. I really don’t think that 36 year old males are Meg’s target demographic.
Having said that, the videos below make her someone worth keeping an eye on. The Little women clip I came across via bookshelves of doom, which then led to the beauty tip.

As a woman in her early 20s I don’t think I’m in Cabot’s target demographic either. I gave her a chance but there was a lot of cringing involved.
@bookchronicle – I guess the question is, did you think the book was good at what it was trying to do? ie, would you recommend it to a teenager?
