Fourteen-year-old Jennie's life is turning upside down. Her father has walked out, and her anguished mother seeks solace in pills. Her best friend practically abandons her to be with a boyfriend. It seems like Jennie's real best friend is her diary. Then she meets Mr. Johnstone, the substitute math teacher. Jennie has never met such a charismatic teacher. She feels honored when Mr. J. seems to single her out for special attention, and begins to fantasize about him as her boyfriend. When Mr. J. first reveals his feelings for her, she is thrilled by the relationship that grows outside the classroom walls. Then, slowly, Jennie's diary becomes a record of her loneliness, pain, and confusion. Will it also offer her a way to escape from this treacherous love?

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Just ok...
My students thought this one was ok. Sparks is great, but this one was very slow to get to the action.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Interesting Story, Terrible Narration
I know this book is written as a diary, but I do believe that it could have been written much better. It doesn't seem like a fourteen year old girl, maybe an eleven year old, but not fourteen. The main character seems really fake and plastic in the beginning especially.

The story itself, however, makes up for it. It's a story of how obsession can go too far, and the long winding road of love and betrayal and heartbreak. I like it, but wish it was written better.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - at least im nice
unlike all the ppl that says that this book sucks, i say that this book is probably the 2 best. if u dont like this book then why bother writing about it in the first place?!!!?!?!?! this book is about a fourteen year old girl named jennie who was seduce by her substitute teacher named Mr. Johnstohn(if that is how u spell it) he would give comments to get jennie to like him. jennie never relize that he was using her for pictures of hwer partly naked.
if u where disappointed that this was written ... Read More



Rating:  out of 5 stars - bearly there
Despite the fact that I'm VERY disapointed Beatrice Sparks wrote this and not an "anonomous teenager" I still found it pretty good. It shows how you can get sucked into that kind of thing, it also makes you aware of that [frustuated] teacher( there's at least one). I say it would have been better if it REALLY written by a teenager!



Rating:  out of 5 stars - umm....
I had buy this book because it sounded very juicy when i read a little info of what it was about. i didnt mind the ratings, so i just baught it; a dissappointment to say the least. [sigh]
