Summary: Yo go girl!
Review: By far this is the best book in the bscff series. Mary Annedefinately proved she not just meek shy girl always behind someone todefend her. This time that punk Cokie finally was cut down to size, by Mary Anne. First Cokie made fun her by her big breakup with Logan,then lied about Logan saying that she begged him to get back with him. Also said he going with another girl{which was true}, then she sabotaged the yearbook ballots! . That's when Mary Anne did her own scheming as well, along with the BSC's rival, Cary.In this book you could see Mary Anne try on new attitudes and maturing from the old quiet Mary Anne! She even snuck out of her house! Now that's major improvement! Also in this book Mary Anne and her parents settled long overdue conflicts.Mary Anne has proven herself to Logan, BSC, Cokie, the whole school,... and herself that she is here and here to stay!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Mary Anne comes out of her shell...
Review: This is book number eight in the series.

In this installment, Mary Anne, Cokie, and some other people are on the yearbook commitee at school. The school nominated categories are being updated this year- so in addition to all the categories like best dressed and most likely to succeed, they have other categories like Most Artistic and Most Likely to Be Seen in Hollywood. Cokie, unfortunately, sabotages the votes so that she and her friends will get all the categories to themselves. Mary Anne and Abby figure this out, though, and go to the vice-principal to get a recount.

Cokie, furious (as always), spreads a rumor around the school that Mary Anne begged Logan to take her back, sending him e-mail messages and hundreds of messages on his answering machines. Logan, reportedly, had said 'no, there is another girl, and I don't like you any more'. This isn't true, and Mary Anne and the BSC get Cary Retlin to help them think up a way to pay her back just in time for the huge party that Cokie's throwing.

Mary Anne's dad grounds Mary Anne just before the party, so Mary Anne sneaks out and arrives there, where she tells the truth to Cokie once and for all- that Cokie's a brat that no one likes and that even though she thinks that telling lies about other people will make her seem cool, they don't.

Mary Anne finally gets over her nightmares, and learns that her dad had recently been experiencing the same flashbacks to the night of the fire.

A good book, and a lot more serious and realistic than the original BSC series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What a girl Mary Anne is! She's great!
Review: Wow! Mary Anne sure has a lot of courage! She's been through a terrific struggle this year...still having horrible nightmares about the house fire (& waking up in tears), slowly mending her broken heart over Logan, & most of all facing her many fears with a steely determination that is rare in human beings. Cokie's still tormenting Mary Anne & reducing her to tears. I love how she gets up her courage to stand up to that mean Cokie Mason & put her in her place(not to mention going against her dad's wishes, but for a good cause). I also loved how her friends stood by her & stood up to Cokie too & exposed Cokie's dishonesty in the yearbook contest! I think it's great that Mary Anne's active in the yearbook & even though she's a little scared of Cokie, she doesn't let Cokie cow her out of the yearbook. Way to go, Mary Anne!
