I finished the fourth novel in this series, Forever in Blue. I was reading these books before I decided whether or not to put them on the shelves for the kids to read. I have decided that they are fine for teenage reading, and I have put them on the shelves to be checked out. To be sure, there are some things that I am not crazy about in the books, like Bridget losing her virginity in the first one. However, it is written in a way that is very tasteful, not explicit, and much more time is spent on her feelings of regret afterwards, so the message is there. I like the development of all of these characters, and even though the books are written for the teen audience, I did like them and can see other adults liking them also. All four of the books, especially the last one, have some really good lessons that the girls learn about families, friendship, and, most of all, themselves. Overall, good books for teens.
I have now taken that series off my currently reading list and will be deciding soon what to read next, so keep checking back.
