I'm familliar with the cds I enjoy reading all of these books but from the moment I picked up this book I couldn't put it down. now I LOVE! the series even more after reading the Sunny + Maggie serries but back to the book, it kept me on the edge of my seat during the whole book the only part that I didn't really like were the parts with Jill in it she annoyed me sooo much, she's the BIGGEST baby who can't keep secrets. I haven't read the the 2nd or 3rd dawn books but I look forward to reading them.

I have read almost all the books in the series. And I think every teenager would relate to at least one of these characters. The author takes you from a problem of feeling not good enough to becoming anorexic, and people you love the most dying from a diese, even trouble with a boyfriend etc.. If you do not think a book could relate to you than you have not look enough. Or if you just like snooping on other peoples private stuff, you would also enjoy these books. (Even though the charaters are fictional.)

This book was a great start to a great series. People were getting tired of the same old BSB too good to be true girls! This is a totally more realistic series and it makes you feel you were part of their world! Believe me when you read one of the books in this series you'll start talking to the friends who read it as "Dawn is really great but Ducky is a great guy"(like you knew them!) It's true! I recomend it to everyone. Congrats Ann, Best series ever!!!

This book is a story about Dawn from the BSC series by Ann M. Martin. Inside, Dawn is living in California, and all of her friends are changing, so fast that she can not keep up with them. In the form of Dawn's journal, it tells not only events in her life, but her feeling about them. I particularly enjoyed this book because I could easily relate to the situations that Dawn found herself in. It was very interesting to see how another person feels about middle school, and peer pressure. I would definately reccomnd this book to young adults that enjoy realistic fiction storys. I'm sure, however that just about any reader would enjoy Dawn's journal. Enjoy!!!
