She Went All the Way

shrug

I've read most of Meg Cabot's adult and teen fiction, and I always enjoy her sense of humour and fun-but-predictable romances. However, “She Went All the Way” didn't work for me at all. It just felt clunky and clumsily-written, almost like an average fanfic written in Cabot's style. The characters' internal thoughts got very repetitive, and the way Jack constantly refers to Lou by her full name when he's thinking about her was pretty irritating. It almost felt like Meg Cabot was trying to get the word count up by writing “Lou Calabrese” every time, instead of just “Lou”.

However, it's a cute enough story, though unlikely as hell, but then we're not reading these stories because they're likely. :-) But it's definitely the weakest of Cabot's adult novels by a long shot.
