This review is from: Claire (The Clique, Summer Collection #5) (Paperback)

Length:: 1:41 Mins

If you liked the rest of the Summer collection from the Clique, you'll love this one. Claire is back in Florida with her FBFF's, and things are not as she remembers. Her friends have turned into dorks! But wait - maybe it's Claire that's changed?

Throwing a wrench into the mix is Massie's visit. Massie couldn't care less whether Claire gets to stay best friends with her Florida peeps too, and she is in fine form as she shows the backwards Floridians how The Clique does things.

If you've ever had to re-examine friendships or your own values, you'll appreciate this book. It's light and fun, and just what I hoped for from the latest in the Summer collection.

My daughter is thirteen years old and loves this series. She can easily relate Claire's issue with her having to choose between best friends. It is a great series that Lisi Harrison woven. All the books are worth the money and effort to find. Great entertainment!
