personal Rating-
(and a half)
While best for girls entering or in
High School (Public, Private or Homeschooled, it doesn’t matter) or are fixing
to go to college, it had a girl who had emotions most girls with boyfriends
feel. (Don’t look at me! I’m trusting The Lord on my guy! No dating for me!)
See y'all on Wednesday for another review!
