Summary: Achingly Alice is an honest, fun book to read
Comment: Alice McKinley, thirteen years old has decided to become a person "who makes things happen" in the tenth book of this gentle, humorous series. Her first goal is to get her father and her favorite teacher, Miss Summers, to finally get married. Over the course of the novel her attempts to intervene backfire, as does her certainty about there being blacks and whites when it comes to love. Naylor's keen ear for dialog and sensitive understanding of the pains of adolescence make this book ring true and honest whether dealing with the nature of friendship, the quixotic moods of a teenager, the need to find the perfect outfit, or the scariness and exhilaration inherent in the budding of sexuality (pelvic exams and masturbation are discussed frankly). Although the book also deals with more serious issues of loss throughout the story, it does so with humor, sympathy and a light touch. I would highly recommend this book to younger YA readers.

Summary: THE BEST ALICE BOOK EVER!!!!!!!
Comment: This book is perfect! (Like all Alice books) Alice always seems so perfectly average, she's not a geek but she's not the best-looking, most popular girl in school type either. I'd recomend this to just about any girl 4th grade through 14 years old.

Summary: Enchanting!
Comment: I probably related the most to Alice in this book because of her sexual discovery and I think most girls will, too. Alice comes right out and says the stuff young girls are thinking and curious about and a lot of them are answered. If you are up tight and scared about bodily things, read this! If you're questioning where to draw the line with boys, read this! If you're wondering if you really are a womanly creature, read this! It made me feel a lot better and it probably will for you, too!
Blessed be!
