Chronicle In Favor Of Books Queen of Babble (Queen of Babble #1)
What's an American girl with a big mouth, but an equally big heart, to do?
Lizzie Nichols has a problem, and it isn't that she doesn't have the slightest idea what she's going to do with her life, or that she's blowing what should be her down payment on a cute little Manhattan apartment on a trip to London to visit her long-distance boyfriend, Andrew. But what's the point of planning for the future when she's done it again? See, Lizzie can't keep her mouth shut. And it's not just that she can't keep her own secrets, she can't keep anything to herself.
This time when she opens her big mouth, her good intentions get Andrew in major hot water. So now Lizzie's stuck in London with no boyfriend and no place to stay until the departure date written on her non-refundable airline ticket.
Fortunately, there's Shari, Lizzie's best friend and college roommate, who's spending her summer in southern France, catering weddings with her boyfriend, Chaz, in a sixteenth-century château. One call and Lizzie's on a train to Souillac. Who cares if she's never traveled alone in her life and only speaks rudimentary French? One glimpse of gorgeous Château Mirac - not to mention gorgeous Luke, the son of Château Mirac's owner - and she's smitten.
But while most caterers can be trusted to keep a secret, Lizzie's the exception. And no sooner has the first cork been popped than Luke hates her, the bride is in tears, and it looks like Château Mirac is in danger of becoming a lipo-recovery spa. As if things aren't bad enough, her ex-boyfriend Andrew shows up looking for "closure" (or at least a loan), threatening to ruin everything, especially Lizzie's chance at ever finding real love...
Unless she can figure out a way to use that big mouth of hers to save the day.

Lizzie Nichols is a blabber-mouth. But that's not her biggest problem. If I was her, I'd be more focused on the fact that I was a self-absorbed, boyfriend-stealing, shallow, mindless, sorry excuse for a woman. After meeting a guy for 24 hours, this idiot declares that she's in love with him AND THEN proceeds to move in with him, to another country of course, after only "knowing" him for three months. I put quotations around knowing because after the initial 24 hours, the contact she had with3.5 stars. This book was really cute but definitely felt more like a YA to me than a new adult. It's very typical Meg Cabot in that its pretty shallow and easy to read, but entertaining nonetheless. This book is about an American girl who goes to London after dating a guy for 3 months. They met in person but now have only been talking online and she's not even sure she remembers what he looks like. Sounds like a terrible idea, right? Well of course it blows up in her face and her inability to
Ugh... where should I begin... this was HORRIBLE. I liked Meg Cabot as a teen - I found the Princess Diaries nice and some of her other books tolerable. Now this makes me think: were those as bad and shallow as this? If so, I must have been an airhead as a teen... I cannot see why people over 14 would find appeal in this one (unless they only care about romance and nothing else).Let's see:- the thesis parts... ugh. I mean, they are fine to show how "sassy" the main character is... but no thesis
At least Lizzie Nichols knows she has a big mouth. They don't call her the Lizzie Broadcasting System (LBS) for nothing. A fashion history major, Lizzie is a girl after my own heart. Obsessed with vintage frocks, legendary designers and carbs, she is the kind of girl that you can't help but to love. After graduating from college (if you don't count that senior thesis that she still has to complete) Lizzie decides to head to London to spend the summer with her fabulous boyfriend Andrew. In the
This was one of those light fun reads. Not a heavy book but a fun one that was more mindless than what I usually read. Lizzie was likable enough but she was kind of annoying and seemed a little immature for being in her 20s and almost done with college. She is in one of those annoying long distance relationships and swears she loves him but she has really only been with him a couple months (sweetie you have no idea). Lizzie is the girl who just seems to fall in love with everyone and it is
Oh boy, this book had me laughing so hard. Funny and sweet, and exactly what I was looking for in a beachy read. Onto the next!
I've been reading a lot of books lately and I haven't written a review for any of them! I decided to start writing one for Queen of Babble because this is seriously in my chick-lit top list right now. I love it.Some may find this novel superficial, unrealistic and way too predictable, and you know, maybe it kind of is but that doesn't mean it's less fun.I read this book after reading a lot of "depressing books" and wooow, it seriously was an amazing choice. I just couldn't put it down. It's the
