This is the only book I've read in the Christy Miller Series, but I want to read the other ones too. It was really interesting, and the plot kept changing so that it was exciting. You wouldn't have guessed what happens next. The story is aboput Christy going to her aunt and uncles house in California for the summer. Her aunt wants her to "become her own person." Her aunt gives her a complete makeover and spoils her beyond her dreams. Christy changes her outside appearance, but she'll change herself on the inside also. I recommend this book to anyone. I really liked it, I couldn't stop reading it. I am going to read the rest of the books in the series now.
