Being Nikki



Being Nikki is written by Meg Cabot. She also wrote the prequel to this book, Airhead. I choose this book because I had read the previous book in the series and I wanted to continue reading them. I really enjoyed this book and I hope that you will too.

Being Nikki is about Em(emerson) Watts's life as the famous supermodel and movie star, Nikki Howard. Em has been Nikki since she had a brain transplant into Nikki's body after a TV fell from the Stark Mall ceiling crashing on her head and killing Emerson until she got the transplant. Em has had to give up freedom, privacey, family(only her parents and sister know about it) and her best friends/secret crush, Christopher. He has been so depressed since Em's death that he has become a walking dead. One day,Christopher decides to hatch a plan to hack into the Stark website and somehow get Stark shut down. Em agrees to help him since she'll get to spend time with Chris even if he doesn't know its her. At her christmas party that her loftmate Lulu throws, Christopher reveals to Em that he knew it was her ever since she left the glow-in-the-dark dinosaur stickers on his desk. They then team up with Felix, Christopher's cousin, ewho is a computer genouis to shut stark down. Then Nikki's brother,Steven, shows up and askes her to help find their Mom. Em explains everything to him and agrees to help him since she feels bad about everything that has happened to him. Then Brandon stark kidnapps Em and makes her say that she is in love with him and that she never wants to see Christopher again.
Em wants to shut down Stark but Brandon Stark threatens to tell his dad unless she went away with him so she tries to get him to go against his dad and he does. I really liked this book. I would reccomend this book to middle school girls since it is a chick flick.
