Summary: Another Home Run for Carol Lynch Williams!
Review: Carol Lynch Williams certainly understands teenagers and knows how to bring them characters they can identify with and learn from. Carolina Autumn is no exception! I read the first chapter aloud to a group of junior high girls taking a Creative Writing class from me, and they laughed in all the right places, then shared the similaries in experience with Carolina as she gets her first bra. I remembered well my own feelings of uncertainty in budding teenage romance and the fears of my best friend "taking him away." A great book to help teenagers deal with death, as well. This book's short length makes it perfect for the reluctant reader.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Moving book about dealing with loss
Review: Dealing with the loss of loved ones is hard enough, but Carolina is also having to deal with the pains of betrayl and first love. This book handles both topics with great sensitivity and realism. Carolina is a wonderful character who will capture your heart and leave you hoping for a sequel.

Summary: I wish there was a sequel!! :P
Review: i randomly picked this book off of my school library and i luv it! It's a sweet story about a girl named Carolina who has to suffer through amny things that we should be glad we have. She has lost a father and an older sister that was like a best friend to her. my absolute favorite part was the end when Carolina caught Mara and Garret. I was grinning, ear to ear, and smirking, litterally scaring the heck out of my family, mentally screaming 'YES!! YES!! IN YOUR FACE!' hahaha. it really is a great book and i thik it'll make u stronger if you'll just walk up to your closest library!

Summary: Carolina Autumn
Review: The book was about a girl named Carolina McKinney. She lives with her mom after her father and sister died in a plane crash.Her character is very emotional and thinks that her father and sister are still alive. She has a boyfriend named Poindexter who lives right next door from her. Her best friend's name is Mara who is a big backstabber...
My favorite part of this book was when Carolina and Poindexter were running and Carolina fell and got hurt then Poindexter helped her get back home. I also like the part when her mother and her were hugging in the middle of the street while it was raining. It was so sweet and I wish that my mother and I can do that too. The only thing I do not like about the book are when Mara flirts with Poindexter a lot! It is not right to do that while your so-called-best-friend is there.
I personally think that people should read the book because it is so wonderful! It touches your heart.
