For my Res Life friends

Ran across a series of books that you HAVE to read.  They are by Meg Cabot who wrote The Princess Diaries. Most of her work is for young adult readers but this is an adult series about a former teen pop star who winds up working as an assistant hall director at a college in New York.  So far, I've only read the last book (although 2 new books have been optioned in this series to be released in 2009) but it was enough to have me order the first two.  Hilarious.  At one point she describes a team building activity during a staff meeting and I knew at that point the author had to have been one of us.  Sure enough, I looked her up on Wikipedia and she did serve her time.

First book Size 12 Is Not Fat

Second book Size 14 Isn't Fat Either

Third book Big Boned

Anyway ... these are fast reads and funny as all get out which is odd since they have murder mystery written into the story.  I highly recommend!
