YA
Connie (Cross Your Heart, Connie Pickles) goes to Paris for "two-and-a-bit" weeks on a school exchange. She hopes to see the sights and meet her estranged grandparents. While there, she gets caught up in her host family's messy lives and rethinks some ideas about friendship. Connie's diary entries are light and funny but a little bit too polished to be convincing.
