The Mother-Daughter Book Club by Heather Vogel Frederick

Rating: 5
Genre: Realistic Fiction
Intended Audience: Girls, 10 and up
Pages: 245
Summary: Megan, Cassidy, Emma and Jess, are four totally different girls. Their moms decide to put together a book club, a mother-daughter book club. The moms pick out the classic Little Women, which soon helps these new friends get through the drama at their middle school. They have some crazy adventures, and some problems, but these friends will stay together.
My Thoughts: This is one of my favorite books. Each chapter alternated between the girls, which I liked. Every girls was different, so they each had different feelings about things. I liked reading about how each character felt about their mom, which was funny. This book had a lot about friendship and family which are important things, and the girls learn how to deal with them. The author put a lot of details in the book describing the characters, and their feelings, which I enjoyed reading. This book was great! If you enjoyed this book the next one, in the series, is Much Ado About Anne.

Summary: Winnie turns 11 and she knows things are going to change. Her best friend, Amanda, might leave her to be friends with someone else. Her older sister is grumpy, 24/7, and her cat gets into some trouble. She is forced to go ice skating with the class clown. Winnie wants to stay the same, even though things are going to change. She might just change too...
My thoughts: I thought this book was good. I liked how each chapter is a different month. It showed the change over time throughout the book well. I liked the main character, Winnie. She was very believable and I felt like I could relate to her. Her feelings made her more believable because a regular 11 year old would be the same way. At some points the story became a little slow but then it sped up again. This book was a easy read for me, no hard words, and it was easy to understand. I would recommend this book for people who want a easy, but good, funny read.
