The Secret Diary of Ashley Juergens
by
Ashley Juergens,
Kelley Turk, Courtney Turk (Goodreads Author)
I got called into Principal Miller's office again. She handed me a notebook. This notebook. She told me keeping a journal is an excellent way to express oneself. So I have to write in this stupid thing and turn it in at the end of each month.

Let me start off by saying I love The Secret Life of an American Teenager, the TV show. Since I love the show, I figured I would love the book too. I liked the book, but to be honest it felt like I was watching a re-run of the show and I'm not a huge fan of re-runs... I don't even re-read books (not even the ones I LOVE) ! When I know what's going to happen and there aren't any kind of surprises in it for me, I get bored and tend to stop reading... which is kind of what I did with this book. I r...more
i know that i say this alot but this book was amazing since ashley convinced amy into keeping the baby she decided to let ashley name the baby and she named him john jurgens and everybody loved that name.ashley's parents got a divorce so ashley decided to live with her dad so they live right next door so she can see her nephew. ashley's mom got a boyfriend and ashley's mom found out that she is pregnant and then her boyfriend proposes to her and know she doesnt know what to do. ahley is happy fo...more

I decided to read the book a while ago because i've seen the show and i figured why not. I found that when i read this book, there was a couple of things you couldn't see in the show.However,i did feel a little board-- it was pretty much the same thing as the show just in ashleys piont of view.I did like though that it you,the reader got to know what she was thinking and how she felt;They don't really say how she's thinking on the show much unless she is writing or talking to someone so i found...more

Little does she know what she's in for. With everything that's been going on—Amy's band camp pregnancy, my parents' divorce, a secret wedding—it's practically one-stop shopping for all your Grant High gossip needs.

Surprised to say it's a high 2. While reading this book so many thoughts came to mind, I really should have written them down.
First off for my own records I'd just like to say someone sent me this book, of course they didn't force me to read it that of course was my choice. I'll admit that I don't completely regret that choice but I also can't think of anything positive to say about it, other than the writing wasn't bad.

I got this book with little hope that it would be good. I watch the show despite the fact it is an obvious train wreck. They are trying to follow way to many people at the same time. I actually really liked this book and enjoyed reading it. It told the same story, but from one point of view instead of jumping all over the place like the show does. She is witty and smart and I love a lot of her comments. :) This book might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I seriously enjoyed it.
I am a secret watcher of The Secret Life of the American Teenager. (Aw dang it, I guess the secret's out now.) However, the show seriously does suck. I am so embarrassed that I watch it, but it's like a train wreck you just can't look away from.
So of course I wanted to read this book, the fictional diary of the fictional Ashley. And I've just got to say - if only Ashley narrated the show, it would be a million times better! All the repetitive and stupid dialogue was erased and all that was left...more

If you really dont like all of that teenaged drama (you know things that really dont matter that they get all crazy about)this book really isnt for you Id say the book was ok. it wasnt really the best.:/
Read this because I watched the TV series, "Secrets of the American Teenager". Really enjoyed it. I could visualize Ashley's expressions as I read this book. Fun read.
Best novelty book ever! It is so much more well-written than the show that I just want Ashley to narrate all the insane happenings from now on. She's the best.
This was a very good book. Watching the first few seasons of the show kind of ruined the experience for me though.
Hilarious! Definitely shows why she's one of my favorite characters. Hope there's a sequel soon...
I love the show so I figure why not read the book. So far so good but we shall see...
Update: Freaking awesome :) loved it.

I need to read!
Based on the tv show the secret life of the American teenager on ABC family!!!!!! If u didn't watch it u will b relly confused!
This is the first season of secret life from Ashley's perspective. There are little details and rants to make it interesting, but it covers all the main points which if you watch the show, you already knew what happened. It's a nice side story, but I wouldn't bother reading it unless you're a hardcore fan or Ashley is your favorite character.
I really want to read this book sooo badly!! I wish we had this in our school library!
"The Secret Life of the American Teenager" is somewhat of a guilty pleasure for me, so I thought I would give this a try.
All I can say is, it was better than the actual television show.

“There's always another way. And that doesn't make them bad or worse than other ways. Things are bad right now, sure, but they don't have to be. Things are the way they are- it's how you handle them that determines the outcome.”
