Amalia, Diary Two

This is a great book. Maggie is still battling her eating disorder, and Amalia is trying to help her cope with it. The author really brings on strong points about anorexia and things that some may not know about. Amalia & Maggie's friendship reaches it's max. in this book, which is another reason why it is so good. Meanwhile, Amalia is also developing a romance with a certain new guy named Brendan. To find out what happens between the two, read this book and get ready to read it over again about 10 times, just because it's so good!

This is a wonderful book about Amalia Vargas and all of the problems in her life. Her best friend, Maggie is suffering from anorexia, and Amalia is fighting to help her. Amalia (an 8th grader) is having some problems with a Junior in her school, James, who is stalking her. She finally finds love for a new kid in school, Brendan. This is an excellent book!

Maggie & Dawn are lucky to have Amalia for a friend! Even though Amalia is recovering from that awful relationship with James, she goes out of her way to help Maggie, who is showing symptoms of anorexia. I liked how she didn't give up until she found help for Maggie. The part where Maggie finally opens up to the therapist about her parents' problems & how they affected her is very moving.

This is, without a doubt, my FAVORITE California Diaries book. Amalia is probably my favorite character because she's the most realistic for a 13-year-old. My favorite part of this book was the Homecoming Bash.All of the California Diaries are super good. There is never one boring descriptive moment, and you just can't put it down because it is interesting 200% of the time! Read this book. Better yet, read all of the California Diaries.

What a great book! The sitations are things that can really happen. I could not put this down. Out of all the California Diary Characters, Amalia is my FAVORITE!!!
