Teen Idol by Meg Cabot

TEEN IDOL by Meg Cabot from my friend Cara....
Nothing much happens in the small town of Clayton, IN. At least not until major teen heartthrob, 19-year-old Luke Striker, comes to town to research a part for a new film project. Jen Greenley, a junior at the local high school and all-around friend to everyone, is assigned to show him around. The only problem is that no one besides Jen is supposed to know who he really is. Between keeping his identity a secret, lying to her best friend who's Luke's biggest fan, writing the advice column for the school paper, and developing a crush on her friend Scott who happens to already have a girlfriend, Jen is feeling a little overwhelmed. The characters are funny and engaging and the dialogue is just right; both elements redeem the somewhat predictable plot.–


yes, my dear fellow bloggers, another one of cute young adult book from Meg Cabot. it's called Teen Idol.
i started reading it yesterday, and i just finished reading it today. you know at some point when i started reading this book, i somehow quite found it difficult for the protagonist(Jen) to get the "big time teen movie star" as her you know, love of her life(Actually i'm so right! it's not HIM haha! RIGHTEOUS!)....but when i always encounter this other guy(Scott), whom Jen can't stop mentioning or telling the readers how or what her experiences with Scott(the guy) feels like "they're just friends" and all other stuffs. also the fact that Scott already has a girlfriend. blah blah....but in the end....you know that strange and excited feeling that i have been you know always had a feeling that this was the GUY for Jen...-because you know all the scenes whenever they're together always makes my heart go "ekkeeee!" also all those scenes or parts were all SWEET!! all the coincidence that they have the same interest and same books borrowed in the library in grade 5, the part when Scott's chasing Jen in the car wash, when Scott carried her in their retreat just so they could cross a log? or something...and also the part when he said that if Kurt(some jock) would bash Jen's face it's OK for him to sacrifice his own face just so someone could also bash Kurt's face...SO SWEET!!! AND CARING AS WELL!! (I SO WANTED A GUY LIKE SCOTT!!) - aaaaaaah!!suddenly it turned out to be TRUE! hahaha! yeah! i was so excited by the time that he got dumped by his girlfriend....and at the end of the story he's been SECRETLY in LOVE with JEN the whole time...the only thing that's keeping him from doing it(telling her that he loves her.i mean.) was that he thought she doesnt think of him that way, that she treat every other guy the same...u know the NICE JEN....BUT! yah!! they end up kissing each other at KWang's party! yeah!! because Jen figured it out. that she'd been in love with him as well ever since grade 5! yeah!! RIGHTEOUS!

GREAT STORY!
