In the fictional Diary of a Teenage Girl, sixteen-year-old Caitlin O'Conner reveals the inner workings of a girl caught between childhood and womanhood ... an empty life without Christ and a meaningful one with Him. Through Caitlin's candid journal entries we see her grapple with such universal teen issues as peer pressure, loyalty, conflict with parents, the longing for a boyfriend, and her own spirituality.

Follow Caitlin O'Conner, a girl much like yourself, as she makes her way from New Year's to the first day of summer -- surviving a challenging home life, changing friends, school pressures, an identity crisis, and the uncertainties of "true love."

You'll cry with Caitlin as she experiences heartache, and cheer for her as she encounters a new reality in her life: God. See how rejection by one group can -- incredibly -- sometimes lead you to discover who you really are...

This book is the journal to Caitlyn, a typical teenager trying to get through life. She experiences love, parental struggles, school, faith and so much more. I appreciated that this book was like a journal, because it made it seem so much more realistic and meaningful. It it a fairly short book, but one packed with so much meaning.

I received this book free for review from Glass Road Blogging for a blog tour. I was not required to post a positive review, simply an honest one.
