The Mother Daughter Book Club

*WARNING

This review contains spoilers from the book.  If you have read this book already, continue reading.  I you haven't,  READ THE BOOK FIRST!


In honor of the new book coming out on May 3rd, I decided it would be a good idea to review this so that more people will go and read the series.  It is amazing!  If you have read this book, I would like to chat about the books in the comments below.

Now, onto the book!

This book is now one of my favorites! I think That Ms. Fredrick introduced the characters very well.  I really liked that from the start it was so easy to empathize with the characters, and how they were all so real.  I have found very many Emmas and Cassidys  at my school.

Let's discus Becca Chadwick.  I think she is a total BRAT! She is so mean to the whole mother daughter book club, and her mother isn't any different.  Calliope Chadwick is just as mean and cruel as Becca is.  They believe that they rule the town (or in Becca's case, Walden Middle School), and they have no right!  No one deserves to be treated the way that Becca and Mrs. Chadwick treat everyone else.  Leave your opinion on The Chadwicks so that we can have a long conversation about them.

Now, I am also very upset that Becca Chadwick and the Fab Four ruined opening night for Jess!  I got really frustrated when that happened.  The whole time, Jess is doing nothing to them what-so-ever, and then the Fab Four  come out of no where and just take Sundance, who is injured mind you, and put her out on there stage in the middle of the show like it is nobody's business.

I got really exited when the mother daughter book club went on a trip to NYC.  It was so fun to read how everyone got dressed up and they all had a great time, even Cassidy, who is a MAJOR tom-boy and hates getting dressed up.  I loved that Mrs. Delaney let them all have a turn getting their makeup, hair, and outfits done professionally on the set of Heart Beats.  They all had such a good time, and I thought is was really funny that they encountered Becca and her family going to Cleveland.  I got really exited about that part, because, well duh.  I live in Cleveland.  I thought it was funny that the moms int the book club said that Cleveland is very educational, which is true, but it is still tons of fun.  I also thought it was funny that they dissed Cleveland by saying it was educational instead of sun.  Hello, we have the Cavs, and Playhouse Square, and some of the best things to do in a day, like museums and parks and good WiFi. 

I'm really glad that by the end of the book, the mother daughter book club is  a group of friends, not enemies.  IT was rocky at the beginning, but they made it work, and there were more books after.  That means they have to stay friends, right?  I'm just glad that they all put their differences behind them and became friends.  Except Becca.  She's still a jerk.

I'll rate this book an 8/10, because I've read the other book and some of them are better.  Not to say this one wasn't good.  I still love it to pieces. ;)
