Here you go

I'm not sure I'd say it was absolute brilliance. But chance are, you've read it.

Since this soft cover has came out, its been downsized for a cuter fit so you can take it along as a beach read or on the metro, perhaps. But any how, she is a bit too smart for her own good. The main character. And then you have to wonder where her smarts went.

Of course, its one of those reads that leaves you wanting more.

Perhaps you'll want to check your shelves. See if you've still got a copy of it. Who knows, it just might be better the second time around. Maybe. Don't forget Megan McCafferty for your spring and summer reads.

Want to get away from it all? Try one of her books.

Oh yes you can Cann

2 of my favorite reads by Kate Cann. They make me think of summer and let me take a bit of a vacation anywhere with her British bit of humor. Which, I don't even think she lives in the UK so I might be far off from just what sort of humor it really is, but it does show.

Too bad she doesn't get the attention as that Meg and all her series. I suppose its not Gossip Girl nor the Clique, but about real girls with real problems of coming of age. Boys. Even some of her characters wonder if they'd be better off as a lesbian some of the time too.

Cann's fame was probably the Ready, Set, Go series that came out a few years ago. Even libraries practically banned the book. It was about a girl who met a poor little rich boy and what became of them once they hooked up.

Seriously, though, there is more to Cann than just shopping and see who can have the most stuff. Really, her writing is about rezealence, and coping with what life hands you, instead. She's really remarkable in that sense and oh so readable. There is another series of hers I'd love to get my hands on, but as it is, can't find that much of her books anymore, and I don't see her publishing much new stuff. At least, not here in the states. Instead, places like Wal-mart have reissued some of her books under more generic names. If only they knew what were in them. Tee hee...
