Merrie Haskell's Reviews > Being Nikki

** spoiler alert ** ...MUCH better ending than the previous Airhead book. Still a cliffhanger, but one that felt like, you know, I'd gotten a complete book out of the situation. I actually had a moment of genuine (vicarious) romantic thrillage towards the end. Because I am old and have read too many romances, it's hard to get that thrill anymore. I read romances nowadays for the other reasons one reads romances, but seriously, my own romantic life has been good enough that getting excited over other people's "I love you" is no longer what it's about.

Anyway. The Airhead series is about a girl who gets a brain transplant (shhhh... go with it) and has to pose as the person whose body she gets put into. And keep her true identity a secret. Yes! There's enough tension in this wonderfully absurd scenario that not only did I run out and buy the next book, but that my toes curled at one point! Such a fun series, in a totally awesome-ridiculous way.

BTW, if you think the Airhead series premise is too much, that's only because you don't know about Pregnesia.
