Fab and funny
Pants on Fire is a great, funny read i really enjoyed. Its about a girl called Katie who is nice,likes to study, gets travel sick all the time & is popular but who lies alot and in the end the lies catch up with her. She also likes boys alot and spends alot of her time kissing. Though some of the time not with her boyfriend Seth!
This book is about how lying can spiral out of control & how telling the truth is always best.
Meg Cabot shows off all her wit & skill with this book.

This book is a great example of why you shouldn't lie, and what the consequences of lying are. Which, by the way, are Not Good.

Katie is a popular girl in her small town of Eastport, which is known for it's quahogs (clams). She is dating a Quahog (the name of the high school football team) and is loved by almost everyone. Everyone except for Tommy Sullivan. He was "ran out of town" four years ago, which was also the one year that the state-championship-winning Quahogs had to forfeit. That year someone also wrote "Tommy Sullivan is a freak" on the new middle school gym wall. Everything is good, minus the fact that she is a total liar (due to the fact that she is secretly cheating on her boyfriend) and gets motion sickness.

Then Tommy Sullivan comes back.

Katie is running for the Quahog Princess, which is during the Quahog festival at the end of the summer. That pageant goes wacko during the question and answer session. You will just have to read the book to find out what happens.

I really enjoyed this book. It's very funny and Mrs. Cabot makes it even funnier with her amazing writing style. It's a super fast read, hilarious, and intriguing.
