I liked the flow of this one a bit more than the first book, but it still wasn't as laugh-out-loud as Georgia's books are. ( )

More highjinx ensue in the second Talullah Casey nnovel, as Talullah returns to Drother Hall for a second semester of Thespian training. Boy drama seems to be a more important theme this time around, as all of the girls are having issues with their respective boys - or just trying to snag one of their own. Even without Alex "the Good" in the picture, Talullah has her fair share of the drama since she is annoyed with Charlie for having a girlfriend and only wanting to be friends. And then there's Cain Hinchcliff... Clearly he has issues with women, but he seems t have taken a liking to Talullah even though he spends most of his time being an utter ass. Maybe he'll reform some of his bad boy ways, but we'll have to wait til the next book to find out! ( )

THESE BOOKS ARE SO TWEENY.

But so funny, and so good.

I TOTALLY knew that Cain was going to be a love interest. from the moments we first met him, I was like: "That's the guy," and I was RIGHT!!!

3.5 stars, probably. I still loved it, but I feel like it was slightly less amazing than Withering Tights, and also like it ended just when the story was about to actually start. Hoping that, since I waited so bloody long for my library to get this one, I will now go look up the publication date for the next one and find that it's much sooner than I'm expecting. (I hate having to wait for sequels!)

A Midsummer Tights Dream by Louise Rennison is the second of the Tallulah Casey books. She's now officially a student at the school of performing arts, but the school is in dire financial need. The school might end up closed at the end of the year.

Tallulah, though young and and silly like her cousin, Georgia, has more opportunities and more drive. She has to make the most of the moment especially with a classmate off to Hollywood and a school that might not last the year.

Oddly, though, the school centered plot hasn't stuck with me as well as any of the Georgia plots. Although I loved reading it and got caught up in the moment, I'm not sure the new series is as re-readable as the original. ( )
