I was inspired to create this threat after I read about various BSC rumours that were posted in threads. For example, someone mentioned how Stacey and the Mystery of Stoneybrook was actually supposed to be Stacey and the New Kids on the Block dealing with child abuse (I read this in the Claudia and the Terrible Truth thread). As an aside, the New Kids on the Block choice is interesting seeing as the band New Kids on the Block was popular during that same time. Oh, and one of the New Kids is gay (isn't there always a gay in the bunch!)
But I digress...
I also read that Mary Anne and Too Many Boys was one of the bestselling BSC books of all time. Also, the rumour that Ann M. Martin is a lesbian.
What other rumours have you heard?
Also, if there is another forum for this topic -- please link me to it!

Great thread! I can't think of any off the top of my head, but the last two you mentioned are true.

i'm surprised that MA and too many boys was such a big seller, because i honestly don't like it very much.

I thought of why it could be a bestseller and maybe because, simply, it talks about boys! And girls -- who mostly are into the BSC books -- must love to read about boys!

Very true! Plus, Mary Anne and too many boys?! Not Stacey

There's always too many in BSC land: too many boys, too many sitters!

I never realize how many titles had too many in it! A lot of them had Mary Anne in the title as well!

I wasn't crazy about that book, but I guess I can logically understand why
