Mary Anne and the Great Romance:
1. The wedding. "Happy" for them but still wish it were Richard and Edie.
2. Mary Anne's note to Kristy.
3. Richard and Sharon not telling Mary Anne about the move. They really should have all lived at the Spiers' or found a new home together.

Dawn's Wicked Stepsister
1. The cover. Why is Mary Anne taller than Dawn? 2. Richard and Sharon not talking about their life styles before getting married. I would've thought it was something that they would've discussed before marriage. 3. Dawn not telling Mary Anne that she scared her.
Next book: Kristy and the Secret of Susan

1. Kids making fun of the Hobarts for their accents. 2. Somewhere in the book, they say that the Hobarts get teased more at home than at school. This makes no sense to me. They would stand out more at school. What kid would march into someone's backyard just to make fun of them? I think they'd be too uncomfortable to do that, without their friends to back them up and all... 3. Stupid kids treating Susan like a freak show. Made me sad for her.

Claudia and the Great Search:
1. David Michael being stuck home sick again. Why can't this ever happen to Karen?
2. Claudia never "met" any of her "prospective" parents. Would have been much more interesting.
3. Emily's parents have no time for her. Still.

Mary Anne and Too Many Boys
1. Mallory not finding out that Chris had a crush on her. 2. Stacey being so boy-crazy with Toby. 3. Dawn wearing a dress on her flight to California. It seems odd for someone to wear a dress on a plane.
Next book: Stacey and the Mystery of Stoneybrook

Stacey and the Mystery of Stoneybrook:
1. Mr. Hennessey dying. I wish he had stuck around longer to be a friend to Stacey, Kristy, and Charlotte.
2. Stacey showing Charlotte what she (Stacey) has to do each day to manage her diabetes. I felt Stacey did this as a way of saying to Char "So your medicine tastes bad. Big deal. Look at what I have to go through." In other words (I get the point), discounting Charlotte completely.
3. That Stacey and Kristy never hung out (did they)? after this book.

Jessi's Baby-sitter
1. Aunt Cecelia was horrible. She so bossy in this book. 2. Jessi taking over Jackie's project. 3. The Ramsey family not talking about the rules before Aunt Cecelia moved in. A lot of the problems, if not all of the problems, could've been prevented had the adults talked to each other.

Dawn and the Older Boy
1. Dawn changing herself for Travis. 2. The conversation between Sharon and Richard not being brought up again. 3. Travis's behavior was kind of weird. Why did he show up at Dawn's and why did he give her gifts if he didn't want to be her boyfriend or get something out of her?

Kristy's Mystery Admirer:
1. Some of Bart's letters were creepily stalkerish for a 13 year old boy.
2. "Until now, it had been hard to distinguish Jenny from lace curtains." How very rude.
3. Kristy not telling her mom her Watson about the threatening "fingernail" note.

Poor Mallory
1. That the difference between laid-off and being fired wasn't explained. 2. Mr. Pike sulking and not helping the family until being told off by Mrs. Pike. 3. That every Pike kid was shunned. I can see some of them being shunned but not all of them.

Claudia and the Middle School Mystery
1. The fact that Mr. and Mrs. Kishi doubting Claudia's innocence. 2. Claudia being willing to accept the F. 3. I didn't like Mr. Zorzi not giving Claudia the benefit of the doubt. He should've just retested Shawna and Claudia.

Mary Anne vs. Logan
1. The title makes it sounds like a courtroom drama.
2. I felt like the Prezziosos dumped Jenny on Jessi at the end.
3. The one non Jenny sitting chapter featured Karen.

Jessi and the Dance School Phantom:
1. The title: dance school phantom sounds ridiculous, and reminds me too much of The Phantom of the Opera (which this book is nothing about!)
2. How Jessi never tells anyone what happened, and who was the culprit, even thought she gets seriously injured and has stuff stolen from her.
3. How Jessi gets the lead.

1. That we were not told how much money was raised by all the fundrasiers at the end.
