Summary: A moodsetter for the holidays!
Review: Chris Platt rolls out another great Ashliegh book! I love how you get so involved with Ashliegh and her feelings. Just a little suggestion though, wouldn't it be nice not to killthis series? Why don't you not make Ashliegh one age the whole time, end it when she says goodbye to Stardust and write a new series called SAMANTHA! Or CINDY! Or CHRISTINA. It couldn't hurt to do something different!

Summary: A kinda corny ending
Review: Ok, It was easy to predict that Mona would come back, because Ashleigh in the 1st book of Thoroughbred mentioned it. But the last page was really really pathetic. I mean, if you got a promotion with more money would Mona's dad really give it up? And at the last minute too? And the house deal. Usually they don't "fall through" at the last minute. The rest of the book was good, except when Ashleigh got all girly. So , it's not that bad of a book.
