Summary: A Must-Read for Teenage Girls!
Review: "Here's to You, Rachel Robinson" is the sequel to "Just As Long As We Are Together" also by Judy Blume. This book is about Rachel Robinson and the challenges she faced in school, at home and with her friends. Being a straight A+ student, her teachers and everybody else expected a lot from her. Her best friends, Alison and Stephanie were not understanding enough in this area as they did not know how being a top student was like. Facing all the problems thrown at her, and without the support of her buddies, Rachel had to fight alone. What's more, Rachel found herself in love with her brother's tutor.In this delighting sequel, you find yourselves back with the same crowd as in the first book. The book is pretty funny and 'real' with the problems that teenagers face today. It'll be more suitable for girls than guys.

Summary: A book for us ordinary!
Review: "Here`s to You, Rachel Robinson" is about a girl named Rachel(you probably guessed that by now, though!) who just wants her life steady. She was, as her parents put it, born 35. People think her life is perfect. Well, it isn`t. She has an older brother, Charles, who just got kicked out of boarding school. Now, he`s sent home and she and her family just can`t deal with it.
While Rachel`s life goes up and down, you`ll feel like you`re part of her heart, and spirit.

Summary: Charles the Trouble Maker
Review: Here's to you Rachel Robinson is a good book. The setting of the story was in Vermount when Rachel was around the age of fourteen. The main characters in the story were Rachel,Jessica,Robby, Nell,Victor, and Charles. My favorite character is Rachel beacause when she's stressed she listens to music or plays her instrument to make her feel relaxed or calm ,and I also like to listen to music. My favorite part was when Nell and Victor got a phone-call about Charles. I would recommend this book to a friend or family member because it seems like a really good book for all ages, and it's starting to get interesting.

Summary: Not the greatest Judy Blume book
Review: I am a fan of Judy's work, but I have to say this isn't the greatest book that is in print. Ms. Blume tells us the story of Rachel, in her own words. Rachel is a neat freak, to put it nicely, a straight-A student, and tries to help the school in any way possible. She though, tries a bit too hard to make everything right, as she finds out there's some new worries - her brother Charles is home for good, and Charles is not the nicest brother in the world. It's a must-read if you've read HERE'S TO YOU's companion book, JUST AS LONG AS WE'RE TOGETHER, which tells the story of Stephanie, Rachel's best friend. But even reading this one will sometimes make you ready to doze off. It should be a good book, you might think, because you've read JUST AS LONG, but unfortunately HERE'S TO YOU isn't just as long: JUST AS LONG is around 208 pages, this is a mere 102 at the highest. Ms. Blume, I'm sure, would be willing to write a sequel about Alison, the third girl that Rachel calls her best friend... and perhaps that would be better.

Summary: Pretty bad and shallow
Review: I can't see any real reason to read this book, nothing was explored very deeply, characters, situations, ethics. The whole message seemed to be, "Sit back, watch, and live with everything."

Summary: Two thumbs up!
Review: I could not put this book down! I liked how Judy Blume always described how Rachel was feeling and what was going through her head. I plan to read "Just As Long As We're Together" also.

Summary: The best book ever!!
Review: I have read this book countless times, and I always come back to it when Im feeling that there isn't anyone like me, and maybe Im just a weirdo. Rachel is so smart, and Im not "a child prodigy" but I can completely relate to her. And just the way Judy Blume writes & describes things, i don't think anyone can get as realistic. I think this was even better then the first, and I hope one with Allison will be written! And maybe some more about Stephanie & Rachel.

Summary: Not as good as the first one but good anyway!
Review: I liked this book but it wasn't as good as Just As Long As We're Together. It's kind of strange since I can relate better in lifestyle to Rachel. But the problems Rachel had are hard to relate to. I want to have a book with Alison as the narrator published!

Summary: Here's To You Rachel Robinson
Review: I loved this book. I liked it so much I read it twice. I even bought it. I liked all the characters in it. They all had different personalities and it added to it. It wasn't boring. It was one of those books you don't want to put down. I recomend this book for girls who love to read. It's a good book for teenagers. i also enjoyed the first one "Just as long as were together".
