On the first day of junior high, Randy, Sabrina, Allison and Katie are about as different as four girls can be. Randy, who just moved to Minnesota from NYC, is wild and outspoken. Sabrina is bubbly and talkative, everyone's friend. Shy Allison is a brilliant student, and preppy Katie is used to playing by all the rules. But against all odds, the girls become friends. In the first book, the girls further bond against Stacy, the snobby principal's daughter who never ceases to gossip and try to tear down other people, as they try to get used to life in the seventh grade. The one characteristic that makes Girl Talk stand out from other series is that each book includes several "transcripts" of telephone conversations between the girls, usually about whatever the chief problem of the particular book is. Some may find them enjoyable, but as a kid reading the books, I just found them irritating and usually skimmed through until it returned to the "real" book...

This book was so good I couldn't put it down! This book was mainly about a girl named Sabrina Wells.She has just moved up to the middle school.There are lots of new people there that she does'nt even know.She has a enemy of couse who she calls:"Stacy the Great", but also she has some great friends named:Katie Cambell,Allison Cloud,and a new girl from New York named Randy Zac. What boy will she decide to take to the Homcoming Dance? You will have to read this story to find out.I would give this book 5 stars any day!!
I've read this book to the point that the cover fell off.

This is the first book in the Girl Talk series and it was just great. The book was a comical mixture of romance, friendships, and the trials of starting a new school. I was highly disappointed when I found that this series was no longer being printed. I recommend this book and it's series for every adolescent female. I refuse to give up mine but maybe you can find someone else who will!
