This is a must-read if you've read the other Taffy books!
Finally, we get to hear Taffy's side! I feel bad for her sometimes, but she puts it all on herself. I think she could be very nice if she'd quit worrying about her looks and clothes and stuff and started being a real friend to the people who admired her, namely Mona. I thought the Fab. Five were a little mean to her, but then, she is often meaner then that to them, so...

Being pretty ISN'T all it's cracked up to be...
I feel kind of sorry for Taffy, even though she gets snobby at times. The book is a good illustration that, no, pretty girls aren't very lucky. Taffy's very lonely and all the girls except Mona are jealous of Taffy and on top of that the Fabulous Five are MEAN to her, teasing her about her stolen diary and whispering about her behind her back.

This review is from: The Truth About Taffy Sinclair (Paperback)
Finally, we get to hear Taffy's side! I feel bad for her sometimes, but she puts it all on herself. I think she could be very nice if she'd quit worrying about her looks and clothes and stuff and started being a real friend to the people who admired her, namely Mona. I thought the Fab. Five were a little mean to her, but then, she is often meaner then that to them, so it didn't bother me to much. This is a good book.

Being pretty ISN'T all it's cracked up to be..., January 5, 1999

This review is from: The Truth About Taffy Sinclair (Paperback)
I feel kind of sorry for Taffy, even though she gets snobby at times. The book is a good illustration that, no, pretty girls aren't very lucky. Taffy's very lonely and all the girls except Mona are jealous of Taffy and on top of that the Fabulous Five are MEAN to her, teasing her about her stolen diary and whispering about her behind her back. And to make matters worse, her mother isn't very understanding and trivializes her feelings and is pressuring her to win a part in a commercial. Taffy, however needs to wake up and realize what a wonderful friend Mona is and not be embarrassed to be with her. Who cares if someone wears bummy jeans and old sweatshirts as long as they're loyal, kind, intelligent? Kristy and Mary Anne from the BSC series don't! I liked how Mona was concerned about Taffy's lost diary and tried to find out if the Fabulous Five had taken it. I think the crass stupidity between Jana and Taffy bothered Mona. Also, Taffy didn't really help her case by flirting with Jana's boyfriend Randy and fanning Jana's immature jealousy. Taffy needs a circle of supportive female friends, but it doesn't look as if she'll find it among some of the immature kids at her school.
