Yours Truly, Lucy B. Parker

review 1: Lucy B. Parker has style and pizazz! What she doesn't have is a BFF. Marissa thinks they are BFF's, but Lucy says they are anything but. Marissa is annoying but it's better than having no friends at all. She used to be friends with Rachel and Missy, but they friend-dumped her. Something else making her life difficult is that she has not gotten her period yet. She's very well-prepared but nothing yet.Then her mother bombshells her and tells her that she's been dating the father of the most popular teen star on tv! OMG!!! This can't be happening! Laurel Moses is the girl from the Hat Incident! (It's a long story.) When Lucy meets Laurel and is formally introduced, neither girl is very impressed by the other.As the relationship between Laurel's dad and Lucy's Mom continues, L... moreucy wonders what will happen if it leads to marriage? To have Laurel Moses as a stepsister? Ugh!I can see how this series appeals to tween girls. However, it is poorly written and sets a bad example: the way Lucy treats Marissa and talks about her is rude and mean. I found myself waiting for Lucy to realize that her behavior towards and discussion of Marissa was just awful, but it never came.
review 2: Lucy B. Parker is your average girl with one sort of up and coming best friend after she was dumped by her previous because she wasn't mature enough. In this case, mature meant being snotty and mean and caring only about looks and makeup. She now has to deal with a creepily tidy soon to be step sister who just happens to be extremely famous. Lucy feels like she'll never be good enough to keep up with Laurel Moses and this insecurity is what girls all over the world can relate to. less
