Babble On!

The third installment in the Queen of Babble series opens where the second left off: Lizzie has just been proposed to by Luke, her princely boyfriend, while Chaz, one of her best friends, lies in her bed upstairs. Quickly deciding she wants to be married, Lizzie kicks poor Chaz out and embarks on the wedding of her dreams. Or does she? Why on earth would a happy bride-to-be break out in hives every time she thinks of planning her wedding? And why would Luke, so recently re-enrolled in college to become a doctor, take off for three months in Paris so he can revive his investment career? Lots of fun characters are found in this book: Tiffany and Monique return, as does Shari, Gran, and the Henris, owners of the bridal restoration shop where Lizzie lives and works. Introduced as well is Ava Geck, socialite and heiress, who befriends Lizzie while Lizzie works on her bridal gown.

While it seems pretty clear from the beginning with whom Lizzie belongs, it is a fun ride as we watch her struggle with her feelings and actually mature into the smart businesswoman we all know she is. There are some heavier themes found in this novel as well, and Lizzie has to find her way by relying on her own intuitions. Don't be mistaken; this is light, fun, chick lit, and if you are looking for something deep and meaningful, you won't find it here. But if you enjoy a funny, sometimes poignant tale to fill your summer days, you can't do better than this. Meg Cabot's captured the lightheartedness of Lizzie and her friends perfectly and you'll find yourself captured as well as you get to the satisfying conclusion.

Bought for daughter who loves reading Meg Cabot books. Did not disappoint. Good reading

THE PATH TO TRUE LOVE SELDOM RUNS SMOOTH

Meg Cabot, popular author of The Princess Diaries series has crafted a featherweight plot filled with funny, finely drawn characters - suspend belief in rational thought and enjoy, which you surely will.

Lizzie Nichols has hit the big time in the Big Apple. After Vogue's editor called her restoration of an ancestral wedding gown "cunning,"and that comment appeared on Page Six the phone at Chez Henri has been ringing incessantly. Everybody who is anybody wants Lizzie to do her wedding gown.

Regrettably in the midst of this Henri, yes, the Henri immediately following Chez has a heart attack and it's left to Lizzie to take charge. Taking charge isn't such an easy task when one of your clients is Ava Geck, wealthy daughter of the owner of the Walmart-like stores whose motto is "Get It At Geck's." Ava is one of the funniest characters to ever grace pages. "Grace" is not the word to describe Ava - she's a gum chewing gal who is often seen "on the red carpels of movies in which she is not starring, since she has no actual talent." While her dad is worth billions Ava has a personal worth of more than $300,000,000, and she's engaged to marry a Greek prince. She's currently in NY to do a guest shot on Celebrity Pit Fight, and she wants Lizzie to do her gown. Being involved with Ava sets the stage for a series of laugh out loud scenes.

While Lizzie is a whiz in business her romantic life is currently on a fast road to chaos. She is also engaged to a prince, Jean-Luc, aka Luke. It would seem to be what a girl from Ann Arbor Michigan has always dreamed of - her own Prince Charming ready to take her away to France where she will live at Chateau Mirac. Problem is Luke's best friend is Chaz with whom Lizzie has recently shared a bed (only that), and he's the one who makes her heart do flip-flops. Nonetheless, she knows it is Luke she loves or does she?

Meg Cabot is a whiz at creating both fun and fantasy. She does it every which way with Queen of Babble Gets Hitched. A caveat: While some readers of the first two books in this series may have wished for further emphasis on original characters, first-time readers will probably find it a romp.
