They're semi-epistolary, told through email exchanges and whatnot, and very very funny. She wrote them before she was known as Meg Cabot, and I think they're way better than this series.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712356914314014189.post-24753159070890366182010-01-17T22:20:06.577-05:002010-01-17T22:20:06.577-05:00@playigbythebook Love to have stumbled on your blo...@playigbythebook Love to have stumbled on your blog.

I don't know Dot and the Kangaroo and the only copy in our library system is not for loan, so I shall have to keep my eyes open for it in the charity shops.

No warning whatsoever. I was thinking back that I Bookmooched your Citizen Girl and a few other chick lit books from you! Di ba? Gosh, I think you were among the first few who unearthed my chick lit gene!<br /><br />@Jan von Harz Will have to check out Jinx. :)<br /><br />@Doret Yup they are so much fun, which is what I love about them!testhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13450478529066242687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712356914314014189.post-72626632298903275792010-01-14T22:53:24.803-05:002010-01-14T22:53:24.803-05:00I love Meg Cabot books they are always so much fun...I love Meg Cabot books they are always so much fun.Dorethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08676911030014718403noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1712356914314014189.post-85403637919532282192010-01-14T19:48:58.997-05:002010-01-14T19:48:58.997-05:00I am with you absolutely love Meg.

I tried to read a Meg Cabot book one time and was totally turned off by her ditzy way of writing and presenting her characters. Still, I really enjoyed the movie The Princess Diaries (and I haven't read those books) so I didn't want to be too hasty.<br /><br />I wasn't sure what the Babble books were like but you gave such a nice overview and some helpful insight. Thank you so much! Great review!Carriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08772667430500306088noreply@blogger.com
