My thoughts on Meg Cabot (Meg-A Readers Blog Hop)

If you would like to know more about the Meg-A Readers Blog Hop zip on over to The Romance Bookie

One of the things that I love about Meg Cabot is the diversity of her writing.

• teenagers saving the presidents
• girls getting struck by lightning and turning into a missing-person beacon
• tween novels
• adult mysteries about ex-pop-stars solving murders
• adults vampire novels
• and more recently venturing into the Underworld

And many more. I mean, sheesh, this lady has her fingers in a whole lot of fictional pies and she is still producing fabby stories - something that ALL of her fans are no doubt very glad about. 

One thing that I have come to LOVE about Meg Cabot's work - more so now than when I was a teen - is her humor. Sometimes dry, sometimes sarcastic, sometimes self-depreciating and pointed at our main characters own expense But hilarious non the less. 

And her heroines are not perfect. They all heave their flaws which - once again - I couldn't really appreciate as a teen, but now it seems to make the characters that much more likable. 

I don't know if it is the same with everyone else but when I was younger I wanted to read about 'perfect' characters. The flaws in characters that I now view as making them more human and relate-able used to set my teeth on edge not to long ago.

I do not know what has prompted this change in my view. I do not know if my personal experiences have made be more tolerant of others - fictional or otherwise. Whatever led to the change though I am glad! :)
