Interpretation To Books Teen Idol
High school junior Jenny Greenley is so good at keeping secrets that she's the school newspaper's anonymous advice columnist. She's so good at it that, when hotter-than-hot Hollywood star Luke Striker comes to her small town to research a role, Jenny is the one in charge of keeping his identity under wraps. But Luke doesn't make it easy, and soon everyone—the town, the paparazzi, and the tabloids alike—know his secret...and Jenny is caught right in the middle of all the chaos.Details Books In Favor Of Teen Idol

DNF at 30% because:- The story narrator is supposed to be sixteen, but she sounds twelve- The audiobook narrator has the most irritating voice I've ever heard- Dull, dull, dull, dull- Plot's going nowhere, and it's doing it slowly- Everyone's been fooled by the super famous Hollywood star's awesome disguise of ... glasses- Hollywood star gets labelled 'sensitive' because he stands up for someone who is being bullied. No, that makes him a fucking human being. Nope. Just nope.Totally held up!I didn't really remember Teen Idol the way I did a bunch of Meg Cabot's other books, and it's funny because I feel like many of the ones I loved back then I'm not impressed with now, but this one was eh to me when I was a teen and I'm impressed with it now. Cabot does some trope-flipping in this one that I probably couldn't really appreciate when I was less well read but that I now find delightful.Part of why Teen Idol ages so well is that Jenny Greenley, unlike most of Cabot's
Teen Idol was the book which changed my opinion of pink covered books.After going through a lot of hideously pink covered Mary Kate and Ashleys and Hannah Montanas in the library shelves,I was actually disgusted with the colour pink.So you can imagine my eagerness to read Teen Idol.Note my sarcasm.It was also my first book by Meg Cabot.And from what they say First impressions are the best ones,I thought she is one of those authors who write nonsense.But,boy,I was wrong.Teen Idol was absolutely
This was every bit of what I expected from Meg Cabot. Yeah, the setup is beyond unlikely and not just the celebrity vising the high school part. But all the unlikely bits make perfect sense in a fun story with people I came to care about and an engaging plot. And, of course, Jenny was a lot of fun to spend time with and joining her while she learns who she wants to be and what she's going to make important in her life was just outstanding.
Rating: 3.5 StarsI needed a book set in Indiana for my reading challenge, and I thought, Meg Cabot - why not? I think I started this book thinking it was going to be more about the Hollywood teen idol, Luke, but really, it was Jenny, who was the teen idol. She had been playing the role of peacekeeper for a long while. They thought of her as the mayonnaise, the one who held everyone together. She often committed acts of kindness, expecting nothing in return, but she was not one to cause any
You can check out more reviews by me on my blog:I liked this book, in ways that I really didn't think I would. I had pre-conceived ideas about Teen Idol (I mean, reading the back cover synopsis who wouldn't?) But Meg Cabot did something she tends to do a lot --something I tend to forget and therefore don't give her credit for-- she surprised me! (view spoiler)[I mean, come on! I can guarantee that at least 99% of reader assumed that Jenny -- the main character-- was going to fall for the super
Another typical Meg Cabot book. I just dont like it because its so unrealistic and childish. Like a young girl wishing to be with a movie star, the whole princess, fairy tale type thing that I just dont go for. Meg Cabot is all about these plots that would never happen in real life. How many movie stars would come to somebodys high school like this?And the style is writing is the most annoying Ive ever read. I dont know if its supposed to be funny or what, but having the character say, I mean
