In this latest (seemingly final) installment, BFFs Lydia and Julie deal with change. A nearby school has burned down, so new kids are coming to their junior high. As they explore friendship, dating, and outsiders, Julie and Lydia find their own relationship and values tested. Although the plot tackles almost too many issues, the author's fans will nevertheless enjoy another lively handwritten-diary-style romp.
