Meg Cabot, the author of the best-seller “Princess Diaries”. Well to be completely honest, I think Princess Diaries was somewhat......well NO GOOD! I love the movie ironically but hated the book.
One day, out of purely curiosity, I decided to try reading; it was funny since I would NEVER voluntarily read anything. For some reasons there were only books from Meg Cabot in the whole store, so I guess why not...
And guess what? It became my favourite book ever since, after Twilight, but that’s another story. The story line was based on daily life of a typical girl, and the non-significant encounter of two people, Kate MacKenzie and Mitch Hertzog. Unlike other books, every detail was told through a diaries, emails, phone calls and random pieces of paper that the characters randomly write on, maybe that was why the book was so different.
Kate is a member of human resources of a New York newspaper and she was ordered to fire a member of the food service that she truly loves, Ida Lopez. Ida sued her, and she meets her lawyer, Mitch Hertzog, defending for Kate and the newspaper. The most exciting part is that, he is Stuart Hertzog’s brother, who was recently engaged to Amy Denise Jenkins. The pair of them was the master minds behind firing Ida Lopez. Luckily for her, the brothers didn’t share common interests and feelings. Together they discovered secrets hidden by Amy and Stuart, solving problems and defend each other.
The story wraps around the Kate’s life, her problems with Ida, her problems with her ex-boyfriend who she has dated for ten years since high school and is on his way to make his debut with the world as an entertainer, her feelings of betrayal from Ida who sent her a basket of cake and then sued her soon after that, getting kicked out of her company and was banned from setting her feet in it again and the complications of Mitch’s family.
AWESOME BOOK-it's funny, it's serious, it's informal...
The only downside is that it ended too suddenly and somewhat randomly, even if it was a happy ending. Or maybe it’s just me...:)
