REPORTING LIVE FROM THE RAPTURE

Hello! It’s me, Meg Cabot, reporting live from the rapture in Key West, Florida (probably the most sinful place in the world outside of Las Vegas and of course the entire state of Indiana). I’m home from Orlando and Canada, and about to leave for my signings next week in NEW YORK CITY! That is […]

Gleeful

Thank you, Golden Globes. We needed that. Just out of curiosity, have you spent the past twenty-four/thirty-six hours asking yourself the same question I have been asking myself?

Avalon High Disney Channel Movie Premiere

It’s finally here! Premiere night for the movie based on my book, Avalon High! And the best part is, this isn’t some snobby premiere out in Hollywood that only the stars are invited to . . . it’s a premiere we can ALL go to, right in our living rooms! Because it’s on Disney Channel, […]

I’ll Relax When I’m Dead

It’s He Who Shall Not Be Named In This Blog’s birthday next week, and he says all he wants for the big day is for me to relax. Apparently, my lying on the couch watching a ten-hour Say Yes To The Dress marathon does not count as “relaxing.” This, HWSNBNITB says, is “re-energizing.” Much in […]

Weather Girl

Like every woman in America this week I had to go see the movie of Eat Pray Love. I will admit I had a little bit of a hard time getting into the book (it’s not my fault. I only have one ovary) but I thoroughly enjoyed the movie, especially the food parts and the […]

Live from Harry Potter! Arcade Fire! RWA! and More!

More Reports From the Front Lines Okay, so I’m definitely no Christiane Amanpour because I’m finally home and I know I did a horrible job of reporting from the front lines (except for the occasional Tweet/Facebook update). Which sucks because there’s so much I meant to tell you guys (especially those of you who want […]

Reviews

This past weekend He Who Shall Not Be Not Named In This Blog found out his father has to have open heart surgery. Then the US got knocked out of the World Cup (but congrats, Brazil)! Then I couldn’t remember where I was when Michael Jackson died, and everyone on the news kept saying NO […]

Insatiable Book Trailer/PW Review

I can’t believe it’s less than three weeks until Insatiable comes out! I’m super excited about it. Because in times like these—when volcanic ash is spewing all over one part of the world, and oil is gushing up from the ocean in another, and we’re apparently going to be without new episodes of Law and […]

Blooper Video/Author’s Guild/Princess Mia

People often ask, “How do you come up with your book trailers?” I thought a look behind the scenes might give you a few hints. Check out my book trailer blooper reel!

Runaway: Win The Book! See The Video! Check Out The Tour!

In my new book, Runaway, Em Watts is on the run from people who want her out of the way . . . permanently. I feel a bit like I’m on the run myself right now (not from people who want to kill me, so much as from bronchitis), there’s so much going on! But […]

Movie News: Avalon High and The Mediator

As we gear up for Oscar night (I’ve seen 8 of the 10 Best Picture nominees, and am about to see #9! How about you? Best Movie Ever, Oscar Edition, coming to this blog soon!), I just got movie news of my very own. Read it here first… (…or not because it was already in […]

Thanks, Olympics

Dear Olympics, Now that our relationship is coming to an end, I just want to thank you. I will admit that things got off to a rocky start between us. All I really knew about you at first was that you were going to pre-empt a lot of my favorite shows (30 Rock, Mercy, etc), […]

Sometimes, Bad Can Be Good

This past week He Who Shall Not Be Named In This Blog has been passing a bunch of kidney stones. He already has a broken ankle. So, living with him has been a little bit like living with one of those monkeys at the zoo. You know, the ones who look all cute and cuddly […]

One Minute Movie Reviews

What did you do during this past holiday weekend? Go to the movies? Me, too! I haven’t seen Avatar yet because there aren’t any 3-D screens in my area, and all my friends who’ve seen it say you have to see Avatar in 3-D (on an Imax screen). But I DID see the following:

Fa La La La Lifetime

So I turned in Insatiable and have been incapable of doing anything since but watch TV. I know I have a husband with a broken ankle who needs me. I know Christmas is coming and there’s holiday decorating (and shopping) to do. I know I have other deadlines.

Sandra Bullock Divorce Custody Battle!

NEW MOON!!! AHHHH!!!! Ha, no, I didn’t go to New Moon last night at 12:01. I was doing what I’m always doing lately at 12:01AM: waiting for my Ambien to kick in and going, “Why don’t they have Say Yes To The Dress on On Demand?” If you’re doing NaNoWriMo right now, you were probably […]

2012–Best Movie of All Time?

I went to see 2012 over the weekend. As a disaster movie junkie—seriously, I LOVE a movie in which human beings are (pretend) killed by any sort of natural disaster, be it:

The Watchmen

I finally saw the movie of The Watchmen! I’d tried to read the graphic novel, but somehow I could never finish it. I have no idea why. The book has everything…sex, naked people, romance, sex, mystery, pirates (there were no pirates in the movie)! I think I got bogged down with the pirates. So I […]

Nights in Rodanthe vs. Rambo 4

Warning: SPOILERS So we’ve been trying to relax by catching up on the recordings on our DVRs. He Who Shall Not Be Named On This Blog doesn’t want me to tell you this, but in addition to long documentaries about Icelandic rock groups (no, really…sometimes they play music with rocks), HWSNBNITB loves to record romantic […]

Some Things I’ve Been Reading* And Watching

Since getting home from Brazil I’ve been really tired, as you can probably imagine. Who wouldn’t be after all those crazy but fun signings; the party bus; the monkeys… …then coming home to get a flu shot that has caused my arm to inflate like a piñata; all the work I have to catch up […]

The Proposal

In my quest to see the Best Movie of all time, I saw The Proposal the other day. (Full disclosure: I saw it with one of my gay husbands: my hair stylist.)

The Incredible Hulk

I seriously did NOT want to watch The Incredible Hulk. The Incredible Hulk is so stupid, and also, he’s green.

Center Stage/Tina the Ballerina/Fame

I can’t get anyone to go see District 9 with me because “it looks too scary” (why are all my friends/relatives such babies?) but this morning at breakfast I turned on the TV and they were showing Center Stage, one of the Best Ballet Movies Of All Time! Of course I couldn’t NOT watch it, […]

Beowulf

I didn’t want to watch Beowulf. There was no way I was going to watch Beowulf because first of all, they forced us to read Beowulf in school and OMG it was such a YAWN. And second of all, Angelina Jolie is in it. No offense against Angelina, but I am Team Aniston. But then […]

Knowing and The Day the Earth Stood Still, plus The Best Cat Video Ever

I had a LOT of people write in with suggestions since I posted that I’d be writing about my search for the Best Movie of All Time. I just want you to know that I’ve seen most of the movies you suggested and yes, you’re right: they’re all very good, and definitely BMOAT contenders. But […]

Best Movie of All Time

It’s true. I watch a lot of movies. Don’t we all? I’m basically looking for The Best Movie of All Time. I’ve seen a lot of really good ones (who can forget Why Me? The Leola Mae Harmon Story starring Armand Assante and Glynnis O’Connor as a brave plastic surgeon and nurse who fight to […]
