“ When I first picked up this book at the library, I thought that it would probably be some thing that I really like because, one, I LOVE realistic fiction books and two, I love this author, Meg Cabot! I ended up checking this book out of the library and when I brought it home that night, my sisters says, “Oh I want to read that book! My friend read it a while ago and she that it was like SO good!” I just said thanks and headed off to read it. Before I knew it, I was almost halfway through it! It was that good!
Okay, so when I finished this book, it was one of the best the books that I had read in a while! It was nothing like I expected it to be like, but I really liked it. It's about a girl that gets into a very bad accident at a grand opening of a new store. It was a SoHo store and the girl (Emerson Watts, Em) had to go to the grand-opening with her sister, Frida. There was a famous model there too, and Em’s sister pretty much loved the model. Nikki Howard (the model), was also involved in the accident. The model had a brain aneurism (or so people thought...) and she had ‘died’. Em, who was also involved in the accident died too, but her brain didn't. A surgery was performed and the doctors put Em’s brain into Nikki Howard’s body. That leaves, what looks like Nikki Howard, but on the inside, really isn’t and Nikki’s friends can not figure out what happened to the old Nikki. Em has to try to figure out how to be a model, go to school, not tell anyone about the surgery AND has to try to convince Nikki’s friends that she really isn’t Nikki anymore. It must have been hard to try to balance all that, but I think that a lot of girls would like this book!
This was one of my favorite books that I’ve read because it was very descriptive and I like to read about these kinds of things. It had a little bit of romance in it and there was a lot of trouble with the relationship. I like reading books that are like that. Anyway, there were some things that I didn’t like...it was that there were some times that there was unnecessary fillers and the book kind of got boring in those spots, but in the end, it turned out really good! If I had to rate this book, I would give it a 10!”
