Summer Promise, Christy Miller Series By: Robin Jones Gunn


In the first book Summer Promise by Robin Jones Gunn's Christy Miller Series. Is about a 14 year old girl named Christy who is stoked for her summer vacation to California with her Aunt and Uncle. Upon arriving to the place of New Port Beach California things appear great, but as time goes by things Christy realizes that she doesn't fit in with the crowd that lives in the town. After tons of embarrasment as well as rejection Christy's Aunt decides that if she undergoes a makeover things will be better. As Christy undergoes her transformation, she thinks that it will help gain the respect of Todd, Spencer, and Alissa who all seem to live different lives than she does. As things progress, and promises are broken. Christy not only realizes that beauty is skin deep, but fitting in is not always the best thing. Although Christy's friends have treated her different, there are still those who are there when you can't see. All promises are meant to be kept, and hopefully Christy will keep her summer promise. The other two books of the Volume inclue A Whisper and a Wish, as well as Yours Forever! I really enjoyed this book, and I hope you shall too!


The rating of this book would be a 4, because I enjoyed it very much.

The popularity of this book would be a 2 because it appeals to some teens, but not all.
