As ever, things are not running so smoothly for the girls. Ellie's romance is on its last legs, thanks to a persistent boyfriend, Nadine is "in love" with a boy she met on the Internet and is planning to go and meet him despite the other girls' insistence that things may not be quite as they seem, and Magda's hamster has died, leaving her less than happy with her friends' response to her grief. Each of them is shedding tears (rivers of them, in fact) and none of them can quite get to grips with the idea that their all-time best mates seem to be so absorbed in their own problems that communication between them is fast breaking down...
Jacqueline Wilson, award-winning queen of tell-it-as-it-is children's literature, hits the teen spot with this straightforward, highly enjoyable novel, adding further flesh to the bones of the characters her loyal readers will have come to love in Girls In Love, Girls Under Pressure and Girls Out Late. She tackles the everyday issues that really count (school, boys, family life, friendship, bad hair, imperfect bodies...) perfectly capturing the raw emotions her characters endure through their daily lives, while telling a darn good story that will leave readers asking, "How soon can we read the next one?".
Age 11 and over. --Susan Harrison --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.

This book is really funny and I could'nt stop reading it.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Girls in Love (Paperback)
This is the best book I have ever read. It is about two best friends called Ellie and Nadine who have been best friends since they were little, and they always stick together. But when one of them gets a boyfriend their friendship goes horribly wrong. I think this book should be recomended to girls aged 11-16. It is really funny and I think if you buy it you will definately enjoy it.

Great for young teenagers,
By Jo (Norfolk) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Girls In Tears (Hardcover)
This is a typical Jacqueline Wilson book. Fast moving and easy to read. Once you start you won't want to stop. Jacqueline's style of writing in the first person allows difficult and personal issues to be tackled in an unembarrasing way. Personally I feel that dispite the young looking packaging this is a book for at least 11+. Another best seller I'm sure!

I don't normaly listen to cassetes but that one, BRILLIANT!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Girls in Love: Complete & Unabridged (Radio Collection) (Hardcover)
The cassete (and book) is about Ellie (Elinor), Magda and Nadine are three normal 13 year olds and their boyfriends. Magda finds the perfect boy, Nadine finds a boy who is not quite so nice as Magda's but will do for her and poor chubbie, round Ellie only finds a nerdy eleven year old on her usual visit to the holiday cottage in Wales. When Nadine and Magda start talking about their romantic holidays Ellie has no other choice than to tell them about her nerdy little eleven year old Dan, but would Ellie do that nooo of course not! she makes up a beautiful and absolutely drop dead gorgeous dream Dan. How long will Ellie pull through making up stories until her friends find out? Find out in the all around BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD! book 'Girls in Love' Oh yeah, The narrators really Brill too!

Girls in love x
I think this book just really sums up what a love life is like for teenagers, and it seems as if Jacqueline Wilson became a teenager again.
