Delightful - By: Hazy Daisy, 11 Dec 2008 
I have to admit that Meg Cabot is my guilty pleasure. Her books aren't intellectually demanding, they're not great works of art, but when she's good, she's incredibly good, & "Airhead" is one of her best for ages. The plot seems utterly implausible, but if you're prepared to suspend your disbelief then you'rein for a great, fun read. Emerson Watts is a really sympathetic & entertaining character, both as herself & as Nikki. There's also the fabulous cast of supporting characters who keep the plot rolling along nicely, & I promise you won't be able to put it down, & as another reviewer has said, you'll be begging for the next book as soon as you finish it.
My fave Meg book! - By: CJ Taylor, 07 Oct 2008 I have never been a mad Meg Cabot fan but I have read a few of the Princess Diaries & Mediator books & I totally loved her last book Jinx, so I was eager to read this one when I found out what it was about & it is definately my favourite book by her to date.
Its about a teenage girl called Emmerson who is a tomboy & spends her time playing computer ganes with her friend Christopher (who she is secretly crushing on!), her sister Frida is the exact opposite, her main mission is to be popular & she idolises teen supermodel & face of Stark Enterprises, Nikki Howard. When Emmerson gets dragged along by Frida to Stark Megastores for a performance by popstar Gabriel Luna, something happens that will change Emmerson forever - literally!! She wakes up a month laterin the body of Nikki Howard - Emmerson Watts is no more!
She is unable to tell anyone about this as it will cost her parents £2 million, including her friend Christopher who believes Emmerson is dead. She goes to school where everyone idolises her but she can never tell the truth.
At times I found this book pretty emotional especially the later Christopher scenes & I really hopein the sequel 'Being Nikki' theres a happy ending for the 2 of them, will he realise who she is?
If Meg Cabot continues to write books like this & the brilliant Jinx, she will go from being an author I just found alright to one of my favourites!

Courtesy of Teens Read Too - By: TeensReadToo.com, 16 May 2008 I can't lie; this had to be the oddest book that I have read by one of my favorite authors!
Emerson Watts is a pretty typical nerdy girl at a good school. She has one best friend, who she is secretlyin love with (It is a guy, by the way.) But she is only typical until she goes to a store opening with her sister & gets injuredin a very freak accident.
When she wakes up after about a month of being unconscious, she feels like she is someone else.
And she actually is.
This is not a paranormal book. She gets a brain transplant.
At the end of the book I literally said, "Get me the next book! NOW!" The ending is a total cliffhanger!
The characters are smart, witty, & a little weird, as with typical Meg Cabot books. A fun read, even though the beginning is a little hard to understand, & can be difficult to get into. However, it is definitely worth reading the whole thing, because it is truly hilarious!
