Product Description:

Katie Ellison is not a liar.

It's just that telling the truth is so . . . tricky. She knows she shouldn't be making out with a drama club hottie behind her football-player boyfriend's back. She should probably admit that she can't stand eating quahogs (clams), especially since she's running for Quahog Princess in her hometown's annual Quahog Festival. And it would be a relief to finally tell someone what really happened the night Tommy Sullivan is a freak was spray-painted on the new wall outside the junior high school gymnasium—in neon orange, which still hasn't been sandblasted off. After all, everyone knows that's what drove Tommy out of town four years ago.

But now Tommy Sullivan has come back. Katie is sure he's out for revenge, and she'll do anything to hang on to her perfect (if slightly dishonest) existence. Even if it means telling more lies than ever. Even if, now that Tommy's around, she's actually—no lie—having the time of her life.

- LIAR, LIAR!!! Are you like this girl???
PANTS ON FIRE by Meg Cabot is a great book that reveals the inside secrets and lies of an everyday teenager in high school. Katie Ellison a sixteen year old is the most popular girl in her school. She is smart, beautiful and is dating the schools hottest football player. Katie is mistaken for being a caring person and wanting to be a Quahog Princess when she really doesn't want anything to do with it. Tommy Sullivan a boy she used to hang out with is back in town and is out to get her. She goes behind her boyfriends back with another guy. She also claims that she never knew or talked to Tommy Sullivan about anything, but she was there when he did the spray painting to the school.
As Katie went through a web of her own lies the book got more intense for me and I was able to understand ... Read More

- Great Book
I really liked this book. I usually only buy Meg Cabot books if they are at least 4 and 1/2 stars, but this one was one of my favorites of her books. I really liked all the characters and I thought the plot was well written. I also really enjoyed the passion in the romance. It was a fun book.

Genre: Young Adult/Break-Ups

Katie is a typical teenager in high school. She is popular and has looks, good grades and hot boyfriends. Did I mention, she has a lying problem. That is how she was able to become so popular in high school. Even since Tommy Sullivan left, his ex-best friend, she lied her way through freshman to junior year. Lying has never been hard for Katie; the only thing she had to do was keep her lies straight. In fact, she even had two boyfriends without a problem. Then Tommy shows up in the summer before senior year and her perfect life comes crashing down, fast. She thinks she is in love with Tommy although she has two boyfriends and all her lies are catching up with her.
The characters in this young adult book were also ... Read More

- Meg Cabot's really just churning books out now.
I honestly like Meg Cabot. Usually her characters are easy enough to relate to, and she's pretty funny. But I think Meg Cabot has come to rely too much on the, "underappreciated-and-misunderstood-girl-falls-for-wrong-guy-but-finds-true-love-in-a-boy-she's-always-overlooked" plot. Those books certainly have their place in the world, but at least in Cabot's other works, the main character has something else going on for them, be it psychic powers or discovering she's a princess.

Kate Ellison has nothing going for her. Sure, she likes photography and riding her bike, but she's also the most judgmental person ever. For a girl cheating on her boyfriend, she sure seems to dislike that her "best friend" enjoys shopping and gossip. We're supposed to suddenly like her by finding out that she's ... Read More

- The First...
Book I read all summer and still one of the best. I mean nothing turns out like you expected and Tommy Sullivan really is a freak. Plus I just heard theres a sequal to this!
