EVERYTHING changes!,
By Theatre Kidd "princessofmirkwood" (Texas, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Everything Changes (Baby-Sitters Club Friends Forever Special) (Library Binding)
Baby-sitters Friends Forever is a great series! New things are happening with every single one of the baby-sitters (the author brought the members of the club down to the original four people), and problems that they experience are getting to be more teenage, not just problems with baby-sitting charges. Here's what's happening with ther fantastic four:Kristy: is worrying big time about what is going to happen with the Baby-sitters Club as they get older and afraid that she and all her friends will drift apart in high school. Mary Anne: is getting over the fire a little, and thinking about being her own person, not just the person her dad or Logan want her to be. She starts to think that Logan is smothering her. Claudia: is on a trip to a "deserted" island with her family, and gets back to the simple life and finds that she likes it a lot. Stacey: is having difficulties with her father- he doesn't like Ethan and thinks that Stacey is seeing too much of him, and he is thinking about moving in with his girlfriend who he has been seeing for a long time. Stacey doesn't like the idea of that. This is a great book, and seems to focus on the situations that teenagers face when they start to head out of middle school and start to head into high school. A wonderful, realistic book.

A book that keeps you down in your seat!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Everything Changes (Baby-Sitters Club Friends Forever Super Special, 1) (Paperback)
First off, I'm rather pleased about the BSC Friends Forever Series. It was about time that the BSC change. I mean, I love the BSC, but it was just the right time to start a new series that you can really relate to. The BSC members had perfect lives, but in this book, you could already see that the characters are changing. I like that. So keep up the good work, Ms. Martin!It's a summer the BSC members will never forget. For some, it's time to leave the club. For others, it's time to make a new beginning. For others, it's time to make a new beginning. Plenty of surprises await them--boyfriend troubles, friendship feuds, tough decisions, and totally unexpected adventures. Throughout it all, one thing is for sure: By the time summer is over, the BSC will be very different...and better than ever!

Touching & interesting...,
By A Customer
This review is from: Everything Changes (Baby-Sitters Club Friends Forever Super Special, 1) (Paperback)
I loved the letter-diary format! I was sorry to see Abby, Jessi, & Mallory drop out of the club. I loved the parts of how Mary Anne is getting on with her life after the fire. I was so touched when she decided to give up going to camp with Abby & Kristy to make sure her parents were all right. It was so good seeing Mary Anne's grandmother again! I hope Verna appears in more future books. I just love her. I love how understanding she was of Mary Anne's sadness over the house fire. Boy, was I annoyed with Logan when he started butting into Mary Anne's business & acting as if she needed special protection! I was glad that Kristy urged her to stand up to Logan. When Mary Anne & her family went back one last time to try to collect what they could from the remains of the farm house, Logan had NO right to invite himself into to what was strictly family business! Mary Anne is one strong, courageous girl who doesn't sugarcoat reality & that's one reason she's my favorite character. I loved the scene where Jessi, Mallory, & Shannon give Mary Anne a photo album & Mary Anne is so touched that she cries. Another moving scene is when Verna gives Mary Anne's family boxes of things that that had belonged to Mary Anne's natural mother & whatever bad feelings Richard & Verna had just melt & they're re-united! I know that made Mary Anne relieved! I like the letters between Stacey & Claudia; those were the funny parts. Claudia's family was intending to "get in touch with nature" by vactioning on a remote island...no TV, computers, or dishwasher. But the results are hilarious! Meanwhile, Stacey & her dad are each dating someone & each of them feel funny about the other's spending so much time with that person. I thought it was realistic that Samantha's thinking of moving in with Stacey's dad. All in all, touching, some sad parts, funny, & uplifting.
