This is a two-books-in-one volume that is the second volume in Nicole O’Dell’s series Scenarios- Interactive Fiction for Girls. Read each story, then choose what the main character will do next by choosing one of two alternate endings. I highly recommend this series to all girls. These are fun stores with relatable characters that give the reader a chance to see each side of a major choice. I’ve given a review of each story below.

This book was written with extremely basic language. There was hardly any description and not enough character development. Most of the characters were branded with either "good" or "bad".
The first part of this book (before you "choose the ending") wasn't bad for younger kids. Beginner readers would probably enjoy it. The thing that really bugged me was all the preaching after you chose the ending. If somewhere on the cover it said something about "Choosing A Christian Life" or something to show...more

I'm eighteen, and I feel like this book is geared to a slightly younger reader--like 11-16 maybe, but I do love the idea of the choice endings. As a swimmer, the Making Waves book in this two-in-one was my favorite. All of my sports enthusiast friends use energy drinks, so that part really rang true.
To be honest, I haven't read this edition, but I did read the two original books in this volume, so I feel okay rating this since I've read them both--just not in this format.

i love the scenarios series and nicole O`dell`s books. Every time i read her books it is so hard to put down. She is such good author it is unbelievable! i always read her books as soon as they are out. I would recommend this book for any girl- teen or tween - that is a christian and struggles with peer pressure. Nicole O`Dell is one of my all time favorite authors! This an amazing series and it keeps you reading! :D
OK. Let me start off by saying this: I am a Christian. I'm a firm believer in Christ & follow Him in my day to day walk. Now. With that being said.
I believe that this book was to preachy. I believe that the parents (especially in the first story) came across as snobby & stuck up. I believe that any girl that reads this is going to probably roll her eyes & walk away a fourth of the way in.
Maybe I was raised differently, but when I was 15 I wouldn't have even DARED to THINK about doing...more

This book is great for Christian girls from the age of 10 and over. As life gets more difficult, the temptaions grow, also. I love this book. I am definately going to read Risky Business again. You can't tell that it is as Christian as Golden Filly, but you can tell that it is christian. It is really good.

This is an awesome Christian book, that really makes young girls look deep into themselves, and see what they would really do in a tough situation. One that every Christian teenage girl should read.
I loved how there were two books in one :) I really enjoyed the morals that both characters experienced.
I personally hated this book only read the first story and I don't plan on reading the other one sorry guys but I will say it had a good moral:)
I really liked this book and love this series!
