Not a bad book, just more annoyed at how they skipped out on large parts of the season and if you didn’t watch the show you’d be confused. Again, what best fried would betray her friend and date her boyfriend. Lousy.

These novelizations really take me back. This one was particularly fun because it covers a pretty pivotal batch of episodes. It also includes flashbacks to episodes that weren't previously novelized, so that was fun to see. Mel Gilden captures the characters well and does a good job of making the episodes flow together as a cohesive story.

For commentary on some of the episodes included check out 9021 Here We G0! https://soundcloud.com/9021hereweg0/s...

Drama, drama, drama!!!!! So much drama going on for a group of high school kids. It was like a regular high school on steroids but it did touch on a lot of problems kids can face. It was very entertaining.
