The last book in a trilogy I'd been reading came out the day after Christmas, and I was excited to go and get it. I heard that it had leaked early so I searched for it in Barnes and Noble, dragging Courtney to the "Teen Section." I realized the humor in the situation of two 18 year olds searching desperately for a book amidst the Princess Diaries

meg cabot is amazing. classics in the making.

i have read a good deal of meg cabot and enjoyed it! there is definitely a place for escapist literature, and a lot of "escapist" lit can simultaneously be interpretive. i mean i think it can be petty to draw those divides as i was, i was just being condescending to tease you. you're always reading jane austen anyways

i love ella enchanted. who cares if its for 12 year olds, that book RULEZ!

i logged onto livejournal in hopes of something long like this.

whats the name of the series?

[bobalooo]

poopy pants trilogy that I also read but Danielle always reads first LEAVING ME LONESOME AND BORED

[dancemonkedance]

hah. no... there isnt really a name for the series. the author is libba bray. the books are (in order): a great and terrible beauty, rebel angels, and the sweet far things

theyre pretty good once you get past the sort of cheesy magical theme (which i actually love)
