My Favourite Things No. 2: Airhead: Being Nikki by Meg Cabot

SPOILER ALERT FOR AIRHEAD! SPOILER ALERT FOR AIRHEAD! 

So. Em Watts has had a brain transplant. Into the body of Nikki Howard. In case you didn't know, Nikki Howard is world's hugest teenager, most famous model ever. Now Em is stuck with Stark, and can't leave the modelling world (because Stark saved her in the first place). 

Now, Nikki's family starts to catch up with her. Nobody told her that she actually had a family,  so its a bit of a shock when Steven (Nikki's brother) turns up out of the blue and tells her that their mothers gone missing. Then the guy shes in love with is in love with her. The real her. The dead her. So while he's pining away over Em, he can't figure out that she's been in front of him all this time. And Christopher, well, he wants revenge on Stark for killing the girl he loved most (but never bothered to tell her that when she was still alive. Because he hadn't realised it). Not just that, but Brandon, Gabriel and Justin (ew) still want her. Oh yeah, and Em's just realised how evil Stark really is. 

this book literally has it all! and it ends with such a good cliffhanger that made me cry. everything about them is so amazing, you can 'connect' with the characters and yeah! so please read!

My Favourite Things No. 1: Airhead by Meg Cabot

Em Watts is anti Stark, make up, heels and Nikki Howard. So it comes as a big shock to her when she ends up as Nikki Howard-literally. She's next to Christopher one moment, then BAM, she's in a hospital and looks in the mirror, and staring right back at her is the worlds biggest teenager. So now she is worlds top model-every girls dream. Yeah right. Em now has to deal with every guy who sees her instantly falling in love with her at first sight apart from the only one she actually cares about. Then there's Lulu, and Brandon, and Frida-worlds most annoying tween sister. Can she still keep her connections with her past life...or leave it all behind?

I LOVE AIRHEAD. It's just so, well, lovable. Em is funny, likable and mature, a type of heroine I haven't seen in a while. I fell in love with Christopher as well (book crush no:1) and Lulu. They are perfect together, Em/Nikki and Lulu.

You get to see the perfect mix of Em and Nikki's lives, which is really enjoyable. Also, there are some moments when I couldn't stop laughing and some where I wanted to cry for Em. It's such a good book so buy it, like, now.
