Meg Cabot Easter Egg Daydream

 Based on my previous post I have been daydreaming that even though the two books I connect have been published for 17-18 years I am still feel like the first person to find that Easter egg.  I'm sure I'm not and I'm sure it's because I've read and enjoyed Ready Player One, a few two many times but something in my brain hopes I get an email from Meg Cabot tomorrow saying I'm the lucky winner for realizing she put a bad guy in two books with very little overlap except that the guy was a psycho waiting to happen and I guess it's better to reuse because if you don't have to create more bad guys in even a fictitious world then good on ya.  

What's my prize Meg Cabot?  Can it please be that you write a 'Avalon High' esque novel but instead with the fairy tale of Peter Pan?  I have a lot of thoughts but I can't quite make the plot work like you did with Avalon High and wow did they miss the mark on the ending.  I mean I don't mind that they make changes but it really isn't the same.  Ditto for the Princess Diaries.  

Meg Cabot's World - Teen Idol and Heather Wells Mystery Series

 OK so I don't have the novels in front of me so please forgive any glaring errors in details but going from memory Teen Idol's plot is loosely how the main character moves from being 'the mayonnaise' that makes everything go together and smoothing things out to taking charge and seeing conflict as health instead of constantly trying to make everyone happy.  Jenny (the main character) does this after a under cover movie start points out that Jenny is all about people pleasing and that the status quo at her school is pretty messed up and she should do more about it.  She does, and things work out and everyone is happy.  Some of Jenny's conflict is that she is in a show choir class with her best friend and the teacher is Gary Hall.  

I've searched the internet and haven't seen anyone else make this connection that Gary Hall is also the main antagonist in Size 12 and Ready to Rock and teacher that seduced, married and blackmails the rock start Tanya Trace.  

My intention is to read both books again to find more crossover (if any) exists.  For the life of me I can't remember Tanya's previous name before she went all glam and got a stage name but I know it was something tricky because Cooper (detective boyfriend) had a hard time finding Tanya and Mr. Hall's marriage license.  

Spoiler: super glad Mr. Hall goes to jail, he is gross on a lot of levels.  

Also someone posted on goodreads that the audiobook narrator has 'the most irritating voice I've ever heard'.  

Let me tell you Elisabeth Moss is a TREASURE!! She has been a standout performer since The West Wing.  She is hugely popular for staring in the Handmaid's tale  

Her insta bio states:Elisabeth Singleton Moss is an American actor. Dubbed the "Queen of Peak TV" by Vulture, she has received numerous accolades, including two Primetime Emmy Awards, two Golden Globe Awards, and two Screen Actors Guild Awards

The Boy Next Door by Meg Cabot - Fantasy cast

Just finished the audio book version of The Boy Next Door by Meg Cabot and I will not be able to rest until I have put up my fantasy cast for this book.  Some of the ages differ but I think they would work
