Finished The Summer Before by Ann M. Martin.
I loved the Baby-Sitters Club growing up, so I was beyond overjoyed to see that there was going to be a prequel coming out.
And this book was so much better than I was expecting. It is, as the title would have you believe, the summer before the BSC was formed.
Kristy's sad because she misses her dad. Mary Anne's starting to chafe under her dad's overprotectiveness and mega rules and regulations. Claudia feels like she's way more grown up than Kristy and Mary Anne are (uh--YEAH, no kidding) and Stacey is about to move to Stoneybrook from New York, and is relieved to be getting away from her former best friends.
*happy sigh* Such a fun book. :) I hope there will be a sequel at some point. I'd love to see them in high school or college (or even better yet, as adults).
I really liked this book, probably way more than I should. It's great to see my old BSC friends again. :)
