I think this may be The Living One.
One of the GR reviews specifically mentions La Jolla.

Hmmm. A couple other semi-random guesses:

Loser/Queen -- involves text messages

Kiss & Blog -- has blogging, not texting

Here's one, just as a shot in the dark: The True Meaning of Cleavage

Seconding Ayshe's suggestion of Stonewords.

Also, have you introduced your young patron to the books of Dan Poblocki yet? A little scarier than Mary Downing Hahn but appropriate for middle grade.

It's possible the book you read was Secrets Of Deltora, based on the Deltora books by Emily Rodda

Adult Contemporary Fiction? No real plot line just the stories of 4 women. Read in 1990s? (16 new)

Mar 06, 2018 04:47PM

This is a long shot because it's not an exact match, but it was written in'94, the author is a college professor, and it follows the lives of four different women, so... maybe: Women Like Us

SOLVED. YA Fiction. guy who lives above a bookstore can turn into a green dragon, saves girl love interest from being sacrificed by his demon "uncle". [s] (10 new)
