Airhead

Meg Cabot is the queen of cute. The Princess Diaries have been a huge success across the nation. She has penned some adult titles that seem to do well, also. She left the cute genre to do some darker stuff like The Mediator series. Airhead seems to fall somewhere between The Princess group and The Mediator series.

Our main character, Emerson, likes video games. She isn't popular. She isn't into fashion and beauty. She has a best friend that she is secretly in love with.

When a jumbo tron TV falls on her, through a quirky series of events, Em ends up dying. However, a brain transplant moves her brain into Super-Model Nikki Howard's body. Odd circumstances for sure. So now this down-to-earth, scholarly lady is transported into the world of high fashion, love triangles, and being an emancipated minor.

This is part one of a series. The ending is a little abrupt. Even though it was pretty much fluff fiction, I will be interested to see where this series goes. Part II is due out May 5th, 2009.
