This second book builds off of the main characters of the first but with added new ones. Each of the books in the dearies seems to be composed of four stories, all sweet, sentimental, and sad. For me, it was difficult at time to keep up with all characters because some had similar names. Over all a good read if you are needing a cry over a sentimental story that pulls at some heart strings.

Beautiful story and the developments from
the first book made this one so much more worthwhile! You have to connect the dots a bit in this writing style but in a fun way

Heart-wrenching and had me in tears, but beautiful.
