TITLE: The Boy Next Door
AUTHOR: Meg Cabot
CALL NO.: FIC CAB pb
The Boy Next Door was my first Meg Cabot book and it was enough to peak my curiosity to want to read some more of her books. I won this book many months ago at a “Library After Hours” program and it has been sitting on my shelf waiting for me to read it. Finally, I picked it up and read it cover to cover.
It was a fast and addictive read. Meg wrote this book in a format that I had never seen before. It is written as a series of e-mails sent back and forth and between all of the characters of the book. I found this format to be a little annoying at first and thought it may only last for a few pages, but continued throughout the book. Despite the format, there is some pretty good character development and I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next. The Boy Next Door is a love story with a twist of a mystery and it has a happy ending.
