Maureen Johnson is hit or miss for me, but this was a definite hit, and my favorite book of hers. I like the setting and the family dynamic (and Scarlett's brother is a great character). I know there's a sequel coming out soon, and I'll definitely be reading it. Overall, nothing earth-shattering, but light and cute and a lot of fun.ETA: reread this February 2010 after reading [b:Scarlett Fever 6138539 Scarlett Fever Maureen Johnson http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1256408513s/6138539.jpg 6317320].
Really fun book. I was a theatre major, so I enjoyed the theatre/acting story, the hotel was a great setting, and the characters were likable. I liked the writing style too. It wasn't a fantasy story, but it had the sort of crazy situations that made it just a little fantastical at times. It reminded me a bit of the Shopaholic books in that sense.
