Insatiable - Meg Cabot


Sick of hearing about vampires? So is Meena Harper.

But her bosses are making her write about them anyway, even though Meena doesn't believe in them.

Not that Meena isn't familiar with the supernatural. See, Meena Harper knows how you're going to die. (Not that you're going to believe her. No one ever does.)

But not even Meena's precognition can prepare her for what happens when she meets—then makes the mistake of falling in love with—Lucien Antonescu, a modern-day prince with a bit of a dark side. It's a dark side a lot of people, like an ancient society of vampire hunters, would prefer to see him dead for.

The problem is, Lucien's already dead. Maybe that's why he's the first guy Meena's ever met whom she could see herself having a future with. See, while Meena's always been able to see everyone else's future, she's never been able look into her own.

And while Lucien seems like everything Meena has ever dreamed of in a boyfriend, he might turn out to be more like a nightmare.

Now might be a good time for Meena to start learning to predict her own future. . . .

If she even has one.

W-O-W my first Meg Cabot book. And it won't be the last. I enjoyed this book a lot. There's so many books of Meg Cabot's I wan't to read. Not more then ever. I remember in middle school how much I wanted to read The Princess Diaries because all the girls were reading it. And then after Alvon High the move came out and I wanted to read that. Then I hear about Abandon and I wanted to read it. And I was at the library and I grabbed the audio book of Insatiable, and I am so glad I did.

This book has so many vampire pop-culture refrances. So many that I don't think recognized them all. There were Buffy, Twilight, Vampire Dairies, Sookie, so many hits on how people reacts too vampires, and how stupid the people are who believe in or throw themselves at the actors who play vampires. I loved it.

There were a lot of Dracula references as well. I loved it, Mina and John Harper. There was a lot of the historical notes about Dracula and I love it. There's been a huge about of my grade 10 english class where I spent most of my days with my nose in Bram Stoker/Vlad the Impaler / What people thought of how the myth of Dracula came about. And I was excited to see it all in a novel.

This book had twists and turns and I can not wait until I get my hands on Overbite. if you haven't picked this one up yet. I think you should
