With six teenage girls living under one roof, things are bound to get interesting.
Mix six teenaged girls and one ’60s fashion icon (retired, of course) in an old Victorian-era boarding home. Add guys and dating, a little high-school angst, and throw in a Kate Spade bag or two … and you’ve got The Carter House Girls, Melody Carlson’s new chick lit series for young adults! The Carter House experiences a shake-up as one of its own returns home after an unnerving disappearing act. Then, friction grows as a school Homecoming Queen race heats up, turning friends and housemates against one another. DJ, Eliza, Taylor, Kriti, Rhiannon, and Casey show they have plenty of lessons to learn as the votes roll in. Some grow smarter and closer to God, while others seem to make the same mistakes over again.
Despite all their differences and disagreements, the Carter House girls continue to grow together, forging a bond that strengthens through hardship. Hearts CAN change and friendship paves the way for at least one girl to move closer to God.

MY THOUGHTS:
Just like I said, when I reviewed the 2nd book in the series~ I have to say it again! These books are so 'real'. Everything that happens in these books, can happen, and do happen in real life. That's what I like so much about these books. They are so real, and I don't know all this stuff, because I don't go to public school. I learn stuff from these books, and that's one reason why I'm glad that I'm homeschooled.
Like I said in my review of Goodbye Hollywood Nobody, I told you how I liked those books, and the Carter House Girls books are my two favorite series'. And they are, because they are teen fiction, and I love that kind of stuff.
If you like Christian romance, real life issues, and teen fiction, these books are for you! I would definitely recommend them, if you like those kind of books!
