Book sixty-one: Tommy Sullivan is a Freak

Tommy Sullivan is a Freak (2007)
Meg Cabot


Rating: 3/5

Funny, entertaining and well written, but nothing that different from her other stand alone YAs. It also seemed really short, or maybe just not that much happened.

Why everyone LOVES Kate Ellison

She’s top of the class, she parties with the A-list, she’s bursting with talent – and she’s got the kind of boyfriend any girl would kill to get their hands on.

Why everyone HATES Tommy Sullivan

Four years ago he exposed the football team as cheats – and had to leave town, along with his family. But the graffiti branding him a freak still scars the gymnasium wall and no one has EVER forgotten.

Now Tommy’s back in town

But he’s very far from being a freak. In fact, Tom’s hot – TOTALLY hot. And if Katie’s not very careful he could ruin everything!


Wow. The back of this book has A LOT of capitals.



Finished: 8/6

This book is really called Pants On Fire.

Yes, in America, it is called Pants on Fire, but in Australia, the U.K and probably a few other places, it was released as Tommy Sullivan is a Freak.

I don’t know why the different publishers change the titles, but the same thing happens with lots of books, including the Princess Diaries and Mediator series. I guess, like different covers, its probably something to do with marketing.
