Again, not sure if this is unpopular, but I found Dawn tiresome and was actually glad when she went back to CA... I found the "Dawn goes back to CA" storyline tiresome in general. Every few books, she was moving again. I never thought Dawn was so bad as a whole, but I just hated the "coast-hopping."

^ Ugh yes I hated Dawn's whining and boohooing about how she was bi-coastal and her constant moving back and forth.
My unpopular opinion: I definitely do not think Stacey is a sl*t. I always thought that generally she is one of the smartest, most level headed and responsible of the girls. Sure she has her moments, such as making a fool of herself falling in LUV with Wes and Scott for example but then again, don't we all have those moments? The only reason she has lots of BFs is because she's been 13 for years ;D If we had to narrow down her BFs to a realistic standard (excluding Super Specials and Mysteries), she had 3 - Sam, Robert and Ethan. Still not incredibly realistic (I didn't get my first BF until i was 15), but considering the BSC seem older than they are it seems ok. Also, in comparison with the 'bad girls,' Stacey is quite innocent, clean-cut, Sandra-Dee-esque and (as they say in the book) 'girl-next-door.'
I also do not think that Kristy is a lesbian.

Why in the world do people think Kristy is a lesbian? I never understood that one.

Definitely agree about Stacey; she may claim to be more sophisticated and "above" the others but she really isn't. She's pretty much just as innocent and wholesome as they are. I think her tendency to be snobbish in some areas is what might put readers off the most, but I think all the girls can be snobby in their own ways. It's just that Stacey did something about it, i.e. breaking away from the club.

^ Definitely agree with you guys, that I also don't think Kristy is a lesbian (wtf? Is Bart a girl now?) and that Stacey is a sl*t. Definitely not. I never thought that Stacey was particularly snobbish, either. I mean, yes, sometimes, a little bit. But overall she did seem to get along just fine with the other girls, even those who she seemed as though she would not be friends with IRL, i.e, Mallory and Kristy. I think they were all good friends, despite their differences, and that's what I liked

Yeah, the Kristy-is-a-lesbian thing is just ridiculous. Being a tomboy doesn't make you a lesbian. If anyone in the BSC is a lesbian, it's Abby. I mean, Abby's Un-Valentine, she's not just like "Ross, I don't like you" she's like, "Ross, I'm not interested in you or any other boy. Here's my sister, she's hot like me." But then in Abby's Book she goes out of her way to make Kristy laugh.
Uh huh.
I agree about Stacey and all the club members being snobby in their own way. They thought less of people like Cokie for being a snob, but isn't thinking less of someone being a snob, too?

Yeah, I don't get why everyone states that Kristy is lesbian. I think if anyone is lesbian it would be Abby too because she doesn't seem interested in any girls and she did go out of her way to make Kristy laugh so... Anyone ever read the fanfics where Kristy and Abby are paired up? They're actually quite funny ;D.

sorry to double-post, but i have a totally new thought that i want to share that i feel deserves a topic bump. I can relate to Alexis in the all-new mallory pike. I don't like having roommates. While I was never as psycho as she was, I was definitely not very nice to my roommates. After 2 months I just couldn't take living with someone. (boyfriends excepted.) it was just too emotionally stressful for me. so i would really just stop interacting with them. :/ i hope you all don't think less of me now.

I don't either, greer--I've had roommates I chose not to interact with as well. I'm not a bad living companion, though, if I live with someone I really like and have a lot in common with
