4.0 out of 5 stars Great Book!, September 30, 2001

I think this series just gets better with every book. I really enjoyed it. In my opinion, there was only one little problem. The back cover summary thing was kind of misleading. So just disregard what it says. If you liked the other books in the series, this is a must read. What a great book! I highly recommend it.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Friday's Child (A Day to Remember Series #5) (Paperback)

Linda Chaikin impresses me every time I read one of her books. Friday's Child was no different. It has just the right balance between action and romance.

Vanessa gives all young Christian girls a character to look up to. I know that I admire her, even though she has never stepped off of the pages of Mrs. Chaikin's books. She has the ability to love no matter what, which I still lack. She loves her father, who abandoned her at a young age, and she loves in the midst of war.

Mrs. Chaikin has outdone herself this time. Though I have not read Thursday's Child yet, Friday's Child is by far my favorite of A Day To Remember series.
