Size 14 is Not Fat Either

Size 14 is Not Fat Either by Meg Cabot (the sequel to Size 12 is Not Fat), like the first book, takes place in a dorm at New York College. Heather Wells, a former pop star, returns as an assistant dorm, I mean residence hall, director and amateur sleuth when a girl's head is found in the dorm's kitchen. Heather is a likeable character because she is not perfect. She was a teen pop star who is now "washed up" and battling with her self-image.

Heather becomes involved in the investigation because it seems like the police are not following up on important clues. At the same time, she has to deal with the attentions of her ex-fiance, his brother's (who is also Heather's landlord) lack of attentions, her jail-bird father's return, and, oh yeah, a murderer who is getting a little too close for comfort.

I liked reading Size 12 Isn't Fat, so I appreciate your recommendation of Size 14 Isn't Fat, Either. Actually, I've never read a Cabot book I didn't like.
