Kristy's Book by Ann M. Martin, Jeanne Betancourt
4.0
Kristy's book is another book in the BSC series that takes a page from the movie and references Patrick Thomas appearing in Stoneybrook only to see Kristy. If the BSC were more realistic, I wonder if her brothers ever would have found out that their father had no interest in them at all. I wonder if it would have bothered them, especially DM since Patrick chose to walk out on them right after DM was born and pretty much NEVER saw his youngest.
The stories of younger Kristy (and MA as well as Claudia) are sweet, but my favorite is the way Watson steps in for Kristy. Looking back on the series, he seems to be an iffy father (at best) for Karen and Andrew (think about how much time they spend with babysitters before they do the one month on, one month off switch. It's a lot.) but when he gets it right, he really, truly does.
