Does anyone know what Grace is supposed to look like or if there are any special interests she has? I have read a lot of the books but I don't remember anything jumping out at me.

I often wondered what Grace's coloring was, and Cokie's. I pictured Cokie as a blonde and Grace as a brunette, but I think they are never described in the books, which is odd.
She had stuff in common with Claudia and Stacey. She tells Claudia she likes reading Nancy Drew in Recipe for Danger, and she's on the decorating committee for the masquerade dance with Stacey. And I guess she wanted to step out of Cokie's shadow for awhile, running for president against Kristy.

I've always pictured Cokie looking like she did in the BSC movie. And wasn't Grace a blond in that movie? Are you playing her, lyricalangel? It doesn't matter what she looks like. You can make her look like whatever you want.  |

Grace was a redhead in the movie...but I don't think it really matters I always pictured Cokie as a brunette... there was one picture of her in SS#15 , but it wasn't anything like I had pictured her at ALL. |

I think of Grace as having red hair thanks to My Mother's Daughter. I think Marla Sokoloff made a perfect Cokie. Cokie is a lot like Gina from Full House.

I think of Grace as having red hair thanks to My Mother's Daughter. I think Marla Sokoloff made a perfect Cokie. Cokie is a lot like Gina from Full House. I agree on both accounts. Cokie and Gina had a lot of similarites, aside from the fact they were played by the same actress. Wonder if they developed Gina's character from Cokie in BSC? LOL just kidding. That would be cool, though!  Anyway, I picture Grace the way she's described in MMD, with pale skin, deep red hair and very green eyes. I didn't like the Grace in the movie. I thought she was quite unattractive and kind of dorky, not at all like the self confident girl Grace is supposed to be. |

I think that she was a brunette who wore her hair in ponytails.

I picture Grace looking something like Gabrielle Union (Bring It On era) or Eugena from Cycle 7 of America's Next Top Model:   |

^I don't think she was ever given a physical description, it's just how I picture her. (And yes, I'm sure it would have been frequently mentioned if she were non-white. I just don't like the "everyone is white until proven otherwise" method in the BSC books. ) |

^ That would be cool if Grace was blue, like a smurf? And others were green or purple. And those were perfectly okay. But if you're black . . .

If Grace was black (which I highly doubt), the BSC would SO mention it. Every time they'd introduce Cokie and Grace they'd say,"Grace Blume is black. No wonder-she's such a b*tch! Not that Jessi is b*tch, of course..."
I wish they'd mention Grace's (and Cokie's) physical description. Oh, well...
