"This series is one story divided into four books, a hi-lo offering. The stories focus, in alternating chapters, on two ninth-grade girls who are best friends. They have their ups and downs, but they always make up and share those things best friends always share. In the first story, it is the start of the new school year, centered on fitting in and being one of the popular crowd. The other titles continue to deal with school life and teen issues. All the stories are fairly quick reads, none are very deep in either plot or character development. Middle school students, especially those who are reluctant readers, will enjoy them. There is lots of kissing, but no strong language or issues, making these a safe choice for tweens. Recommended."

"The vocabulary is appropriate for a third-grader, but the subject matter would likely be too advanced for a student of that age group. The chapters are short and the font is larger, which will appeal to reluctant readers."
