A Kid's Review

This review is from: Taffy Sinclair and The Secret Admirer Epidemic (Paperback)

I found this book by mindlessly walking down the isles of the library. The cover was not very appealing, but my friend Amy had reffered it to me, and told me it was a quite fun book. So i thought to myself, would it hurt to try? So, i checked out the book and i think the book was quite intresting and fun. Though the cover could use some work.

This is about a girl named Jana Morgan. All her friends are being asked out except for her. She wants Randy, the guy she likes to ask her, but he doesn't. Instead, he hangs around Taffy, a snobby girl a lot. So, Jana got jealous. Later, someone wrote a secret admirer letter to Jana. She wanted to find out who it was so she goes on a mission. The admirer is a surprise! Read this book and find out who it is!

My favorite character is Jana Morgan. Jana Morgan is my favorite character because she can relate to any other normal girl in this world today. Wanting to be asked out by the guy she likes, thats not a story line that the usual story uses. This story relates to girls and makes me feel comfortable that their are girls just like me out there.

I first read this book because my friend, Jennifer, recommended it to me. After reading it, she described it to me as a exciting book. Also, when I read the back of the book, it seemed really interesting. The picture looked fun, too.
In this story, Jana Morgan's friends are all going out with their boyfriends, except for her. She wants Randy, the boy she likes, to ask her, but he didn't. Then when she saw Randy and Taffy hanging out together, she became jealous. Soon, she received a secret admirer letter. Jana and her friends went out to find out who it was. The answer surprised them! I think Jana is a independent girl who is just afraid to spill her feelings. She needs to be more open to guys.
I really enjoyed this book because this kind of stuff relates to real life. It was fun and mysterious, yet has to do with boys. These are the things that most teenage girls have to go through. I would recommend this book to girls, especially, if they love a good, fun mystery.

This review is from: Taffy Sinclair and The Secret Admirer Epidemic (Paperback)

This was a REALLY good book! It starts with how a few boys in the 6th grade are planning to take their 'girlfriends' to the movies, but Jana is upset because Randy (her 'boyfriend') hasn't asked her yet. Then she sees him hanging out with Taffy Sinclair and is worried he is starting to like Taffy instead. But then, Jana starts getting notes from a Secret Admirier and so she and her friends start a secret mission to find out what boy it is, but discover a very big surpise instead. I LOVE The end of this book, it has sorta a twist. Read it!!!
