Beautiful
This book was a quick read. I was immediately absorbed into Ginny's life. It's like I was her long lost friend who just came along for the ride. All of it clicked into place one little puzzle piece at a time during this book for me. Perhaps rather adventurous and probably not something you would do in real life, but that's called the willing suspension of disbelief and Johnson worked that well in this book. Perfect for the Middle School-High School level girl. This book is very easy to relate to and has the same flavor as The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. Wonderful.

Getting New Places
This book is interesting humorous and sometimes even holds you in suspense as Ginny takes you on an adventure alongside her as she follows the 13 little blue envelopes.
This novel has confusing romance and is definitely the perfect book for anyone like me that is in high school, loves travel and art!

BEST BOOK EVER
OH MY GOODNESS! when my mom gave this book to me for Christmas I was like to myself "OK another weird book that she's giving me and that I'll never read" but wow when I read the back I was like cool there's things like letters and traveling in it; maybe I will read the book. So I started to read the first two or three pages and was like oh my I can't put this book down. its funny because sometimes i would stay up until about three in the morning reading the book! My mom would come in and say its time to put the book down but then I would just pick it right back up again! When Ginny and Keith were making out I was like wow that took forever to happen, but I knew that they would have to make up sometime in the book! Well, I thought that this book was the best book I have EVER read and I don't really read that much, but I could not stop on this one! Well I hope that everyone reads it and loves it as much as I did!!!! Oh yeah and my mom just started reading it and she was like "the author of this book did a really good job of getting you hooked right in to the story!"

Excellent thriller
while i was reading this book I felt trapped inside of it and that I would not be able to get out until I finished reading it.
