Title: Now I’ll Tell You Everything
Author: Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
Star
Rating: 5/5
Review: Admits that there is more of
herself in Alice than in any other character of the Alice series. Yet she can
see herself in Pamela, too, and now and then Elizabeth. Sylvia Summers was
created out of a beautiful speech teacher she had in college and Lester?!
One-hundred percent from her imagination.

Review: Overall, this book was amazing!
I’m glad I got the chance to read it. In the book, it gives you different
insights on friendship, family and love. This is now one of my favorite books.
There were a few things I wish the author could’ve mentioned in the book, but I
love it all the same. I recommend this book for anybody who enjoys romance or
anything that involves bravery in a character.

Rating: 5/5
Review: I think it brings to light how
bullying, in many different ways, can take a toll on a person. It was an
interesting spin on holding people accountable for their actions. At the same
time I did find it to be an unrealistic vision of suicide but overall it was a
good read.

I love the story and all the characters. One of the most amazing part of
this series is how they combine recipes into the stories. It always makes my
hungry and someday I will make every dish in the series!

Rating: 5/5
Review: This story is of a determined
young lady who ventures out into the west to teach, unknowing of what the
future may hold for her and others. This book intrigues me because of her
growing faith in God. As Elizabeth learns more about life on the prairie, the
people she has grown to love, and trusting in God, her entire life changes.
