I just thought of another horrible one. I don't remember too much about it but "Kristy At Bat." It dealt too much with sports for my liking.

Oh, I liked that one. I, er, liked the description of the food that was served at the camp. And I liked Abby's baby-sitting chapter.

I really don't like Claudia and the great search. Also most Kristy plots are very bad and boring.

^ I used to hate Kristy and the Walking Disaster, because it was too sports focused, but I read it the other day and it's actually not so terrible.
I don't really like The Ghost at Dawn's House. Was just boring for me.

Abby's Unvalentine was boring. The predictable ending just kept getting dragged out.

Aw, I liked Abby's Unvalentine! Actually, the only Abby book that I can think of really not liking was Abby and the Bad Sport. I didn't like Abby in Wonderland *that* much either, but I like all the Abby stories.

^ Aw, I liked Abby in Wonderland. Her grandma being mad at her sister for so long because her sister blabbed about her going to weight-watchers. That was just silly. But generally, I like her books, even though I haven't read that many.

Actually, Wonderland does have some good bits. I guess I didn't like it as much as some of her others because it seemed more serious, and there was less BSC... Though the BSC subplot in this one was pretty cool.

I wish I could read more Abby books. They're higher numbers, so much more difficult to find

I'm surprised she even got one of the four Super Mysteries - Fright Night. Actually, I don't know if that's actually true. She just starts it off.

Yeah, she starts it. She starts a SS as well, BSC in the USA.

I thought BSC in the USA was Dawn's?

How did I miss this thread the first time around? Also Jessi's Wish. It was like a really boring After School Special. We had Jessi and the half dead girl (Sorry. Cancer does suck. Don't want to offend anyone.) plus everyone else had their very special projects going on. I felt like I was supposed to learn something from this but didn't. And why the hell was Jessi an acceptable replacement for a teacher that left town? YES! I hated Jessi's Wish! I think it's the only BSC book I'd actually say that about. I couldn't stand it. So freakin boring. I hated how they practically abandoned the club for a few weeks while they all got their random volunteer jobs. I didn't care about their volunteering, I didn't care about the girl with cancer, I didn't care about the Kids Club.. UGH!
