Summary: Great Book
Comment: I have been a faithful reader in the "Alice" series and when I read this book, I was definitly not disappointed. I have read every single Alice book and I still find it interesting. This book was escpecially good to me because it involved tons of new guys for the girls to fight over and have fun with. I also liked that the girls were in a different environment than what they usually were in, that being a coed camp. This book was touching and fun. I even laughed out loud, which I hardly ever do in books.

Summary: Another great addition to the series!
Comment: I've been a fan of the Alice series for over three years, now, and every year I anxiously await the next release. I was not disappointed with Patiently Alice this spring - far from it! Covering the summer between 15-year-old Alice McKinley's 9th and 10th grade years, this should be popular with fans and newcomers to the series alike.

Alice's mother died when she was very young, so she's excited that her dad is finally marrying her English teacher from 7th grade. Alice and three of her friends, Elizabeth, Pamela, and Gwen, decide to be assistant counselers at a summer camp for three weeks, however, soon before the wedding. Alice and her friends have a lot of fun, trials, and tribulations at camp, but when Alice returns home, so many things have changed. The wedding is postponed, her 22-year-old brother Lester is considering moving, a friend is having family problems, and she even hears from her ex-boyfriend, Patrick.

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes very realistic, humorous reads about life for a teenage girl who is not-so-perfect but somehow relates to all of us. Be sure to read the othes in the series, and if you still want more, try The Princess Diaries series by Meg Cabot or the Angus, Thongs, and Full Frontal Snogging series by Louise Rennison. Enjoy!

Summary: Okay....not the best
Comment: I am a HUGE fan of the Alice books, but I guess I was a little disappointed with this one. It seemed like the author was just randomly throwing in problems to make the book interesting...but the problems were all fixed by the end of the book. It really bugged me how the wedding was postponed (problem #500) and all of a sudden it was like, "Oh, okay, we'll just hold the wedding in October...problem solved :)." I was hoping that some of the problems would continue into the next book so that everyone would just be hanging until the book was in stores. All in all, this Alice book was good, but not up to the usual standards. Wait 'till it comes out in paperback.
