4.0 out of 5 stars Good illustration on the pressures to have a boyfriend..., March 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Abby's Un-Valentine (Baby-Sitters Club) (Paperback)
This book reminded my a little of the Fabulous Five's "The Boyfriend Dilemma." In it Abby's not interested in dating, but some of the other kids are not very understanding. Even some of the BSC members lapse a little here. But I was glad that Abby didn't cave in to the pressure and that finally her friends came around and supported her, even Claudia & Mary Anne, who have boyfriends(when are Mary Anne & Logan going to break up-they're mismatched & it would be so stupid if they stuck together much longer). In "The Boyfriend Dilemma", Christie's friends weren't very supportive of Christie's desire not to date. I liked the ending where Kristy & Abby go to a movie together instead of the dance. I also like how all the members of the BSC put priority on their friendship, even when they have boyfriends. I loved the message that you don't need a date to have a good time. Also kind of cute & funny that Abby wound up winning a heart-shaped box of candy(and turned red over it!) The one thing that was missing from this book...Mallory! I hope she comes back soon; the club's not the same without her.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good Moral, but needs something to it, December 21, 1999
This review is from: Abby's Un-Valentine (Baby-Sitters Club) (Paperback)
Yup, we've all read how moralistic this book is and how if Abby isn't ready for a realationship, then all the more power to her! I agree wholeheartidly but this story is like bones with no meat. It lacks depth and, well, OOPH. You know what I mean, I assume. It is like Anne wrote it in a few minutes, and then ran off to her publisher to get the book published. I love the BSC books, I have been an avid reader from the very start. But it is getting very clear to me that all the new BSC books are getting flowery and kind of, well, stupid. I think it's time to move on to a new series! :)
