Customer Reviews

LOVED IT!

I totally love this book. It was so easy to relate to and a lotof the things I read in the book happened to me too. I only wish thatZoe could have gone out with Tommy but have stayed friends with CJ though. This was my favorite book in the series.

A real, good book you can never stop reading!

This book was one of my favorite books of the Friendship Ring. (My other favorite book was Please, Please, Please.) Zoe is such an incredible character. This book tells when girls are growing up, and how they go off in seperate directions. But mostly, it's about friends, friendship, and family. Give a high five for Rachel Vail!

MOre than two thumbs up-but I only have 2 so...

I really enjoyed this book. It's one of those books you canread over and over. After I read this one, I went out and bought herother 2 friendship ring books. I can't wait until her fourth, Olivia's Story-what are friends for? comes out!I think this is a wonderful book and I think most people who read it will enjoy except for the occasional few.

Couldn't take my eyes off the book!!

This is a very, very cool book! It's a book any girl who's suddenly boy-crazy can relate to. I can relate to it a lot! I've suddenly found some guys in my school a bit more attractive. I'm a seventh grader, like Zoe, and I know what it's like to be in her shoes. But, I thought that Zoe should've gotten Tommy, but oh well. Just like how Rachel Vail said, "I discovered that having a best friend meant making some sacrafices." That's exactly what Zoe did. She gave up Tommy so that she and CJ can keep their friendship. This just so proves that friendship can be more important love. You'll be expecting my letter from me soon, Rachel!

This was the best book on friendship I have ever read!!!

Zoe Grandon, a 12 year old girl, going into 7th grade, never really saw the difference between boys and girls. She is friends with all the boys and all the girls. But then the girls start talking about how that boys don't like her in "that way." Determined to show that she is as girlish as all the girls, Zoe starts acting differently to her boy pals. A great, realistic book on friends, puppy love, and middle school.
