Again, wonderful, sweet and smart. ( )

Kearsten says: ...wonderful, sweet and smart. Loved it!

Merideth says: After the emotional roller coaster of her first YattaCon, Christie is looking forward to this years con with apprehension. She ditched her manipulative boyfriend/artist for Bethany, whose talent has caught the eye of comics company MangaPop. She's also looking forward, kind of, but not really, to seeing Matt again. However, when Matt shows up, he's brought his girlfriend, and it doesn't help that she's totally abrasive and unlikeable. Bethany has to chose between her mother's plans for her, which don't include drawing cartoons for a living, and what she wants.

This book is just as much fun as it's predecessor. You root for Matt and Christie, and suffer with Bethany through her crisis of conscience. However, this book would be completely unintelligible without having read the first volume, and the 'Mary Sue' characteristics of comics creator Linda, who swoops in with the perfect advice are hard to ignore. But fans of shojo manga will find much to like here. (cross-posted from MeriJenBen) ( )

Once we join our charters at the aminy con. Were Matt and Chisty meet again. Now Chisty has a new artist whos mom does not what her to bbe an artist but insted a lawer. And you want beleiv this Matt has a girlfriend. But if you do not beleive that read the books and see for yourself. ( )

I'm reading this out of order, but I have vol. 1 on hold because I *loved* this volume. The art and writing work really well together, telling a compelling, page-turner of a story for the Meg Cabot crowd (i.e. me). Can't wait to see vol. 3!!! ( )
