This certainly wasn't Meg Cabot's best, or close to it. But it was an easy and quick read; I finished it in one day. I could clearly imagine all the characters and I thought the story was fun. It's not something I put too much thought into. I'm used to reading her YA novels, so this was a pleasant surprise to see how she wrote the romance scenes. Overall, I think it would be considered a good ''beach book''.
