Runaway by Meg Cabot

Runaway (Airhead, #3)

by Meg Cabot

Emerson Watts is on the run: from school, from her family and from herself. She's reeling from the shock that Nikki, the girl whose body her brain was forced to inhabit, is still alive. And she's furious. Manipulative Brandon plans to use Em to discover a secret that will ensure his success, whilst Christopher is out for revenge, fuelled by his jealousy. With everyone around her playing a dangerous game, maybe Em should just keep on running . . .

Runaway is the final book in the fashion-tastic and hilarious trilogy from the queen of teen fiction Meg Cabot.

I am really glad that this was the final book in the series. I would have been really annoyed if it was going to be stretched out in another book. I really hated the vanity of some of the characters even though Em Watts kept saying how she never used to be vain. All the talk about clothing and looks and Em's hot new bod was getting irritating after a while. I get it. You're hot now.

In terms of characters, I love love love Christopher and Lulu. I love how Christopher is always there to save the day even if he isn't sure on how their relationship stands. I like how he isn't just fawning over Em and he has some sense of moral ground. Lulu is such an unforgettable character! She says the funniest things and I don't think anyone gives her enough credit! She really does give out the best advice to Em.

Overall, I enjoyed the book. It was a quick read and I'm glad that the series has been tied up.
