Diary of a Teenage Girl, Caitlin Book I:
Becoming Me
“From the first page, Diary captured me. I couldn't stop reading! This is a brilliant, well-crafted imaginary journey to the heart of a sixteen-year-old. I can't wait for the sequel!”
ROBIN JONES GUNN, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE GLENBROOKE SERIES, THE CHRISTY MILLER SERIES, AND THE SIERRA JENSEN SERIES
“As I read Diary…I felt as if I had been given a gift–a ‘backstage pass’ into the life and heart of Caitlin O'Conner. It is a wonderful and mysterious ride as we are allowed a rare chance to travel alongside a teenage girl as she lives in the real world. This is a unique and refreshing read–fun and entertaining, while at the same time moving and insightful. Read and learn.”
GEOFF MOORE, CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIAN RECORDING ARTIST
“Creative and impactful! Diary drew me in as my concern for Caitlin and her friends grew stronger each page I turned. It gave me the inside story to issues I see in my own life–and among my friends and peers. I recommend this book to every teenage girl going through the struggles of peer pressure, dating, and other temptations we face in life.”
DANAE JACOBSON, 16-YEAR-OLD REVIEWER
“Melody Carlson writes with the clear, crisp voice of today's adolescent. Diary of a Teenage Girl is sure to please any teenager who is struggling with peer pressure, identity, and a desire to know and understand God's will. A moving, tender story that will be remembered…and loved.”
ANGELA ELWELL HUNT, BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE IMMORTAL AND MY LIFE AS A MIDDLE SCHOOL MOM
“Melody Carlson captures the voice of teens today in a character we can all relate to. The unique peer perspective makes it very effective. Integrating the crucial message of the gospel, it forces us to weigh issues and causes us to look at a young person–in reality, ourselves–objectively. It challenges, convicts, and leaves us with hope for the future. I highly recommend this book.”
