Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot



Here's another fluff CD that I just had to listen to! And I have the sequel in my car, so I'll be writing about it soon, too.

Meg Cabot is best known for her young adult novels in The Princess Diaries and The Mediator series. Her adult fiction is pretty good, too.

Lizzie Nichols just almost graduated from college (she forgot to do her thesis) with a degree in History of Fashion. She fell in love the night her dorm caught one fire, when a handsome British boy rescued her from the showers. Three months later, she's on a plane to London, hoping to rejoin her perfect boyfriend. But, he's not perfect. He wears a hideous red leather jacket with epaulets. He wants to "borrow" $500 from her. He lives with his parents and she has to sleep in a loft bed above the washer and dryer. So she leaves. Her best friend is staying in France for a few weeks, working at a chateau that specializes in weddings. Lizzie fits right in and falls in love. Again. This time with a French/American man who secretly dreams of being a doctor. Will the relationship work out? Will her big mouth get her into more trouble? Will she ever learn to keep her mouth shut?
