Mother-Daughter Book Club

Hiiiiii(:
I'm back, again. Lately, it seems, I'm blogging A LOT. Maybe, If all the amazing books weren't coming out in October/ November,  I wouldn't have so many posts, hmm? Well, It's a good thing (;
Today I'm reviewing the amazing Mother-Daughter Book Club (MDBC as us fans call it :D ) by Heather Vogel Fredrick! I'm a huge fan of these books, they're great! Currently, I'm on the fifth one, Home For The Holidays. I'm going to be blogging about all of them, though. This one is especially exciting, though, because (SPOILER ALERT!) there's a new character, Becca Chadwick! The whole story began with The Mother-Daughter Book Club.  You have four people (Five now!), Emma, Jess, Cassidy, and Megan. In each book, all the the girls read one book by an author of their mother's choice. The first book carries you through sixth grade, and as more books come along, they get older. )'':  Say you're 11, and you REALLY love the series. You're not going to read the first, and stop because in the next book they're older? Nahh, read'em all!(: Here's some about the first book:



Book club is about to get a makeover. . . .
Even if Megan would rather be at the mall, Cassidy is late for hockey practice, Emma's already read every book in existence, and Jess is missing her mother too much to care, the new book club is scheduled to meet every month.
But what begins as a mom-imposed ritual of reading Little Women soon helps four unlikely friends navigate the drama of middle school. From stolen journals, to secret crushes, to a fashion-fiasco first dance, these sixth-graders are up to their Wellie boots in drama. They can't help but wonder: What would Jo March do?

I hope you guys enjoy this series as much as I do. After a while of reading, the girls become family to you.<3

(Wow, I almost lost my post by exiting out of the tab! D: )

Thank you so much for checking my blog out!

Finding the 'write' word (:

What's something that's frustrating? When you're writing and you can't think of the word you want to use!
You're sitting there KNOWING what word you want, but....It's not coming to you. Earlier I was writing (Surprise!), and I could not think of the right word! I just found the word I was looking for--running.
Funny how a simple word like running can cause such annoyance (:

Ciao~

It was spectacular. Seriously, anyone would love it.
It's for pretty much all ages. I started reading them when I was 10(:
My sister kept pushing me to read them," You'll love them! Don't worry.
Me? I kept saying I'd hate it, and I wouldn't like them, they're boring.
Well whadda ya know? I love them! I .Can't.Get.Enough.
