This review is from: Sweet Honesty (Carmen Browne) (Paperback)

Carmen has made minor adjustments in school. It's now Christmas break and she's a little bored. Her brother, who she learned was adopted in `True Friends,' is sneaking to look for his parents. His big sis Carmen has decided to help him. Will their parents catch on to what they're doing? How will their parents feel when they learn this secret?

`Sweet Honesty' was just okay. It just wasn't as interesting, but I still would recommend it to others.

I loved this book. It was really good and Carmen is a good role model for young girls, although the ending was very similar to the first book: She wins some essay contest. I hope all the books don't end that way!

The young ladies I passed the book to really enjoyed the story. One of the girls was dealing with changes in her life that were out of her control and reading about Carmen being in a similiar situation helped her feel better about her situation.
