Nikki, she finally got something she really wanted. It's really good, it's like a love triangle. The ending, I hate Brandon! Because the ending made me mad, I was disappointed, but I love it overall. I love this book! I can't wait for the next book "Runway" but I still hate Brandon for splitting Em and Christopher up. I hate him. He made me cry my eyes out for her. AHS/AC

Emerson Watts - in Nikki Howard's body - returns to Nikki's home from a photo shoot to find a stranger waiting for her in the apartment's lobby. He reveals that he's her brother - when she thought she was an orphan. It's hard enough trying to keep up with the world, but now her brother drops a bomb on her. Their mom is missing.

Em/Nikki doesn't know what to think of this information. She doesn't remember her mother or her brother. Plus, she's got a sneaking suspicion that Stark Enterprise might know more than they're saying. Nikki already suspects Stark of bugging her apartment. Who's to say they haven't gone farther?

She's made a deal with her brother to help find their mother. In a moment of weakness, she confides in Christopher. He's willing to help her find her mother - for a price. In exchange, he wants a login and password for Stark Enterprise. Em/Nikki gets caught up in a plot to ruin the company she works for while trying to uncover the mystery surrounding her mother's disappearance.

A little science fiction blended with both mystery and romance equals a great series. The secrets uncovered in BEING NIKKI will leave the reader eagerly awaiting RUNAWAY - a sign that Meg Cabot rocks yet again. ( )

Silly and not really memorable, I'm only reading this series to get a sense of closure. ( )

Being Nikki, the follow up to Meg Cabot's novel Airhead floored me. If I could only use one word to describe this second book in the series, it would be surprising. Being Nikki picked right up where Airhead left off without missing a beat. Emerson slowly grew more comfortable in her new body-as comfy as a brain-transplanted teen could be at least. Lulu became a more human/compassionate character, and many of the characters from the first book developed alongside her. The introduction of several new characters was exciting, and at times left me holding my breath anticipating what would happen next.

I don't want to elaborate too much with my observations, as I don't want to spoil anything for anyone who hasn't read this series, or this novel yet. If you haven't I highly recommend it! It's absolutely fabulous. You simply cannot go wrong when reading a Meg Cabot novel. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0545040566, Hardcover)

Things aren't pretty for Emerson Watts.

Em was sure there couldn't be anything worse than being a brainiac the body of a teenaged supermodel.

But it turned out she was wrong. Because that supermodel could turn out to have a mother who's gone mysteriously missing, a brother who's shown up on her doorstep demanding answers, a former best friend who's intent on destroying Stark Enterprises to avenge the death of his lost love, and a British heartthrob who's written a song about her that's topping the charts.

How can Em balance all that with school, runway shows, and weekend jaunts to St. Johns - especially when she's got ex-boyfriends crawling out of the woodwork who want more than just a photo op; a sister who is headed to the high school cheerleading championships; a company she represents that seems to be turning to the dark side...

Not to mention trying to convince the love of her life that models aren't really airheads after all...especially one model in particular.

But then, nobody said it was going to be easy being Nikki.

"The text's abundant references to current pop culture and Em's witty character keep this read both grounded and fun." - Kirkus Reviews
