Welcome to "Candid Conversations with Connie, Volume 2"! And these conversations are going to be very candid. In this book we're only taking questions from girls! Yep, they can ask whatever they want, and I will answer from my vast knowledge and experience. (Well . . . maybe not vast.) If I don't know the answer, I'll ask my friend Penny. We've been where you are, and we know what it's like.You're not a little girl anymore, but you're still years off from adulthood. You still like to play, but you also enjoy having long conversations with friends. You sometimes want to cuddle on your mom's lap, and other times you wish she would just leave you alone. All that's pretty normal, and you'll see that from the questions we're answering.
The author did a good job at making strong points that were very true in the life of a teenage girl. One thing that could’ve been better was if each part was explained from different perspectives so that the readers could relate more. One unrealistic thing in the book was that one of the girls was crying into her pizza. One realistic thing was that many of the girls could relate to the same things.

I read this one out loud to my girls (ages 12 and 14) and they liked it, even though I thought it was a little simple. But it did start some interesting conversations, and how can anyone help but love crazy Connie Kendell from Odyssey? 😏
My two daughters, 9 and 11, are absolutely loving and learning from Candid Conversations with Connie. It creating great conversations in our house amongst all members of our family.
