I loved this book when I was about 11 or 12 years old and on the verge of puberty. I planned to re-read it before passing it to my own 11 year old daughter, but she had gotten hold of it and raced to the end before I managed to. And she loved it too! I'm glad it hasn't dated too badly and is still very relatable for young girls (and the descriptions of sanitary products has been updated). I can't believe my little girl will be going through this phase of her life soon cries
