Rating: Summary: Okay, but not great Review: Claudia is secretly dating none other than the eternally annoying Alan Gray. She is afraid her friends will scoff, but she knows Alan has changed- but is it for the better?In this book, Claudia struggles with several issues: Should she tell her friends that she's dating Alan- and liking it? What will they say? Which side of Alan does she prefer- the old, goofy Alan, or the new ultra-serious one? Can she accept her relationship with Alan? And will working at the library alongside her mother bring them closer together or push them further apart? There is also a surprising break in Erica Blumberg's search for her birth parents. I am glad that other characters are being explored in this series, particularly Erica, Rachel Griffin, and Cary Retlin. Overall, I enjoyed this book. While I wouldn't say it's the best one in the series, it is definitely worth a read. And I can't wait for the next edition- Graduation Day!
Rating: Summary: Kristy Review: Kristy and MAry Anne are my favorite characters, i haven't read this book but i read a review about how these books are no good i love them but i can't seem to find them anywhere i do wish the BSC would have a High School series they've been in 8th grade for over 10 yrs!
Rating: Summary: Please shape up! Review: OK. When the Babysitter's Club series ended, I was upset, but then I thought, "Well, there's a new series with them and it's bound to be just as spectactular as the first." Well, after a about 5 books I stopped reading them. First of all, there was no plot. Second of all, I am sick of reading about how Mary Anne is mourning over her boyfriend. Third, I am so SICK of the fight between Stacey and Claudia. (Or did that end already???) I haven't read the book, but I'm sure it's just as bad as the others. I am a loyal fan of the babysitter's club. I have read all #131 books. But, no offense, Ann Martin, this series REALLY ...! I just stopped reading them becase I couldn't face the pain of seeing how all the characters have changed and Mary Anne's depressed (I HATE reading about depressed people) Kristy's all...like, wierd, and Claudia and Stacey are being the most stubborn people alive. I really liked how in the other series, Ann would divert the babysitter's problem with the babysitees problems. The other series was SOOOOOOOOO much better. It actually had apoint. They were a good business. This one is just flopping all over the place with no POINT WHATSOEVER! I want the series to shape up but i think it's a little too late for that.

Rating: Summary: Okay, but not great Review: This book was okay. It talks about how Claudia starts going out with Alan Gray,this guy that the BSC doesn't like. The main drama in the book is that Kristy doesn't like him and tries to make him miserable. The book makes her look like a real snob, which is strange because she always accuses her rich neighbors of being snobby. (Ahem. Can we say hypocrite?)But, of course, at the end everything is wrapped up in a neat, little package. The author really needs to get some better situations fast or the series will for sure die! ( And to anyone who also reads any of the Sweet Valley books, Francine Pascal doesn't write them. Look at the title page and it will say written by: someone else! That drives me crazy when people think that Francine Pascal writes them.)
