Summary: A GREAT book!
Review: I disagree with the other reveiwer. I think this was a wonderful book. Don't let that other person fool you MKA fans! This is a terrific book. This was a funny book and it was extremely hilarius when Ashly(she is called Chloe in the book. Mary-Kate is called Riley) 'faces off' with Travis and follows him into the boy's bathroom on accident! It was so discriptive I could see the whole scene in my head and burst out laughing. And when it talks about Cloe's 'brain freeze', I understand that sort of thing. Sometimes when I drink or eat something super cold, My head sortof goes numb for a few minets. Anyhow, time to wrap this up. Buy this book MKA fans! And if you like the So Little Time sierese, I sujest the Circle of Magic and The Unicorns of Balinor for all you fantasy lovers. Have fun reading!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Book!!
Review: I have read excerpts of this book, and I must say that If you have a daughter and are considering this as a purchase for her, you should reconsider.

Not only does it outline thoughts encouraging eating disorders, it also presents highschool as a time to be popular and good looking, instead of being yourself.

"Chloe took a big bite of her chocolate-frosted doughnut. She figured she deserved it. No breakfast, and she'd forgotten to repack a lunch."
She figured she deserved it? She was hungry. Aside from the fact that it might not be the healthiest option, a young girl should not have to justify what she is eating.

"Amanda's head was still down, as if she found the meat loaf incredibly fascinating. Chloe watched her thoughtfully.

Amanda had really nice hair. The ends were a mess, but it was a nice shiny brown. And her brown eyes sparkled. Of course, you could hardly see her eyes, the way her hair hung in them.

In her mind, Chloe lopped off about three inches of Amanda's hair. Not enough. Another two inches vanished.

By the time Chloe was finished, Amanda's hair was in a smooth, chin-length bob. Much better. Chloe added a sparkly hair-slide, smoky eye shadow, and put some blusher on the girl's cheeks. She replaced the way-too-pale blue top with a cranberry-red one.

Incredible, Chloe thought as she stared at her creation. Amanda is actually pretty. Or she could be. And if she'd open her mouth and talk once in a while, she could probably be popular, too."

Makeup will help you be popular? Could this be a pre-emptive strike to the Mary-kate and Ashley Olsen makeup line? So much for inner beauty.

Parents, please take caution. What is shown in this book may be common situations for young girls, but it is not and should not be considered normal.

Also: Amazon would not let me submit this review with a zero star rating, or with a negative star rating. One star is the least amount possible.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Really Great Book
Review: i really enjoyed every book of mary-kate and ashley's that i have read, and i def. think young people get into reading from books like these. since younger children look up to these amazing people, they want to learn how to read their books. i def. recommend this book if you have a young child who likes mary-kate and ashley, and i def. recommend it if you are an olsen fan, like myself. i have this book, and i love it, and i know you will too!

Summary: forget it..
Review: it should be zero stars, actually. a great shiny cover with real pretty twins (they are so beautiful.. and i love them) - dull and grey from the inside. they haven't deserved this act of merchandizing cruelty.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: mk and a rock!
Review: Mary Kate and Ashley once again deliver a new series that girls can relate to, and any age can enjoy (I'm 14). I know have all 8 of these So Little Time books and enjoy them very much. In this book we are introduced to Riley and Chloe Carlson, their parents Macy and Jack Carlson, their nanny Manuelo, and Larry, Riley's lovesick classmate (and I don't know why Riley doesn't like him because if you watch the So Little Time show you'll see that Larry is really hot).

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great Book!
Review: This is the perfect series to stack up in your shelves,beside your old Sweet Valley Twins books,which is exactly what I'm doing!I like this series VERY much.Chloe is so funny,without meaning to be.It is hilarious when she drinks cold drinks and gets a brain freeze.The twins also discover that dog training books work on boys!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: MK & A rule!
Review: This was a good book, at times boring. Just because they wear make up, and are popular, that doesn't mean it's a bad book! It's realistic, because a lot of girls care about how they look. It was also funny, and Chloe must have been embarrassed when she had that brain freeze! It was good. Mary-Kate and Ashley are so cool! But all some people can do is critizice them. They have worked long and hard to get where they r right now. They are incredibly talented.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: MK & A rule!
Review: This was a great book, I thought. It was definately a little superficial, but who wants to read serious books anyway? This book was a lot like their movies: totally great but not a whole lot of plot. Don't get me wrong, I love this type of thing. I'm just saying, if you're looking for something serious, this is not the book for you. If you're looking for something fun with no real point, you'll love this book. It was so funny, especially how Chloe was using her dog training book to snag the guy she wanted!
