I'd read this when I was little, but I didn't really remember anything about it.*

But this is about Stephanie and Rachel, who have been best friends for basically forever. Then Stephanie starts hanging out with Alison (a new girl) and all of a sudden, they're fighting. And the girls are in middle school, so there's also a slew of first crushes and whatnot. AND there's an example of the worst parenting EVER.** It's really sweet and a good lesson about friendship being important.

There's a sequel...more

There is nothing like reading a book with a perfect reality setting. "Just as Long as We're Togetehr", was a splitting image with girls in their first year of Jr. High. Going in thinking you will have all your same friends, and everything will still be the same, tell after the first day. Not only is there more classes in Jr. High compared to Elementry, but there is more of a chance that you will not be in the same classes as your closest friends. Stephiane (the main character), figured that out...more

Wow! This book was wonderful. Do you like finding out suprises in books? Well BFF by:Judy Blume had a lot of suprising moments. What i really loved about this book is that it had 2 volumes. The first volume was from a girl Stephanie's point of view. The second volume was from a girl named Rachel's point of view.Between the 2 volumes they sometimes had common things, and sometimes had totally different things. For example:what they have in common is they both have brothers, they both have a crush...more

The situation in this story is that Stephanie starts to become more closer friends with Alison than Rachel who has been her best friend for years. Rachel starts to get jealous and later becomes best friends with someone else. If I put my self in Rachel's shoes I think I would feel jealous and upset. I would feel upset because every time I try to do something special with my best friend Alison is always in the way. I would feel jealous because Stephanie and Alison have so much in common.Also befo...more

This is an amazing collection if you a) Are a best friend, b) Have ever had a best friend, or c) Have ever been an eleven or twelve year old girl. Both stories are also available in my library as individual books.

Stephanie and Rachel are as different as different can be, and they've ALWAYS been B.F.Fs. Nothing can ever drive them apart, right?

Wrong.

When tiny, mysterious, and popular Alison moves to town, Stephanie and Rachel's friendship gets upended. IS friendship about how long you have kno...more

I remember reading Just as long as we're together during elementary school and just loving it!!! Judy BLume has such a way of capturing these coming-of-age characters that make your adolescent years come back all over again.

More great Judy Blume. Middle school, siblings, friends, grade pressure, parents, boys - it's all there. A little too enigmantic about the brother, Charles', issues. I'd say Oppositional Defiant Disorder.
Cg School
Three girls go from friends to a big knot.They go through lots of obstacles. Blooom understands the concepts of threesome friendships.The three girls struggle from Middle School Drama and have trouble staying BFFs.

Have to admit these books aren't THAT good but I feel so sentimental about them. Especially "Just as long as we're together." Kind of reminds me of the group of girls in Are you there God, it's me Margaret.

This book is really weird. I don't like it very much.
Another weird part about it is that the main character is in seventh grade, has braces, and has a sibling that's in fifth grade. (Sound familiar??)

This book took me back to middle school. It looked all new at the library with its shiny cover and all, but then I realized it was just two of Blume's old novels put together in one book. But, I still read it.....sometimes you just need to read "fluff"! :)
Leah
I LOVE this book... I've already read both of the books twice and I would read them again. They are really good and well written. This is clearly a book that deserves 5 stars

These are 2 of my favorite books by Judy Blume, and I just love this binding. The book overall is very sturdy and will probably last a long time, and I love that I can have both of the books in one place.
Diana
Loved the characters and the ups and downs of their relationships with each other and their families.
