Summary: WOW!
Review: I read all of Judy Blume's books when I was growing up and I have to say that when I heard she wrote something new, I knew I had to have it! It took me awhile to get started on it but while I was sick for two weeks I finally read it and WOW, what a wonderful book! I had a best friend that shared my first name all through high school and is still my best friend today and I can tell you we both could relate to this book VERY WELL! I felt totally rejuvenated by this book, and I'm not THAT old. Would I read it again, sure! Again and again and again...

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An unbelievable book!
Review: I didn't expect to like this book but after the first few pages how could I not? It was fantastically written, one of the best books I've ever read. It was the kind of book that you don't want to end. The stories about friendship and love really sought out your emotions. It was hard to put down. Judy Blume is an excellent writer and I recommend this book highly. If you've ever fallen in love or ever had a best friend, than this book is for you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This Book Found the Child In Me Again!
Review: If you loved reading Judy Blume books as a child, you'll love this one just as much! It was like going home again to be able to curl up and read such a great book! The story is great, and the writing proves that Blume is a star! You will not be able to put this book down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Summer Read!
Review: A great book if you're looking for a book that you just can't put down. There are sex scenes that aren't appropriate for younger teens. A great book to read during the summer on the beach, on a plane or just curled up on the couch.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I should have stuck with "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing"
Review: I was half way through this book when it struck me that Judy Blume really isn't a very good writer. This realization is disappointing to a 27 year old who grew up on "Superfudge" and learned all there was to know about puberty from the pages of "Are you there God...". I was so excited to read this book that I didn't stop to consider that of course it would be filled with sex, sex and more sex. This was NOT a deep book at all, and yet it was very readable (almost addictive) so I can't give it a truly poor rating. It's really not Blume's fault; she has the adolescent niche down pat. I'm not sure what I wanted this book to be... maybe just a little more "grown up".

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: amazing!
Review: I couldn't put this book down--I read all 400 pages in six hours!

The intricacies of the friendships in this book, as well as the other relationships, are really true to form. Everyone should be able to identify with one of the characters in this book--from the mother who takes everything out on the daughter b/c the daughter is able to escape and the mother is not to the shy, misunderstood brother.

I highly recommend this book to anyone with a few hours to spare.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: INCREDIBLE!
Review: This book is one of the most moving books I have ever read. I have read it three times, and each time it touches my heart. Martha's Vineyard is my home away from home. I could relate to everything that was going on in the book. You really feel like you are folowing the characters, and they are your friends. The descriptive way the Judy Blume writes is incredible. Even if you haven't been to the Vineyard you feel the magic it holds. I would recommend this book to anyone.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Ever the same
Review: Just the same story at the beginning like some others. Just so simple. A "friendship". Why didn't she write about other things. You can read so much books and it's so often like the same story. It's not amazing that some people, which had read this book, are not so happy as some other times. I think that some readers will never read some books from Judy Blume.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Couldn't Put it Down.
Review: I loved this book. I was so caught up in the characters that I wasn't able to put it down until I could finish it and see what happened to all of the characters.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A fabulous book for a little summer fun!
Review: I truly enjoyed this book! I read it in two days and could not put it down. I only wish that Judy Blume would write a sequel!
