Introduction to ALL AMERICAN GIRL- Meg Cabot


I've just started reading All-American Girl by Meg Cabot.It's about a girl named Samantha, who lives in Washington D.C. now but had moved to Morrocco about 5 years ago and now came back into high school in D.C. again. She has an older sister named Lucy who is a popular "plastic" in her school and if there was a fashion police, she would be the head officer. Sam's other sister is a complete nerd and Sam is just an ordinary, deep,dark ,gothic sophomore. Her parents are going to make her take art classes every week which she is not at all excited about and will probably cut. She was caught sellling celebrity portraits in school and the best part is that she gets to save the president of the United States from getting shot in the head and becomes a national hero. She gets mass popularity and is treated almost like a celebrity. The president's son also goes to her art class whom she met before, David, and she kind of likes him a little bit.

Meg Cabot is a popular author who writes books for teenagers [mostly girls] and for adults. This book will take me about 2-3 weeks to finish if I read 100 pages per week.

I think I like this book so far but next time I will definitely pick a harder book to read.

woah lol other than the save the president part and meetin his son me an her arent that different we bothed moved from one place to another ended up loving it there and then had to move back for highschool and u know what it sucks. the feelin of losin all ure friends because ure parents want u too change. people...no parents they think they can control us just because we are kids and yes its true they can but every being no matter how old is an individual and a true parent would understand their child and know what might upset thier individuality. moving is a biggie.And now because of moving my "life" was murdered by the very people supposed to take care of u. but i refuse to "die" i will make them see that not everything they choose is for the best but meg cabot sure knows the life of a teen pretty well
