A review by aggressive_nostalgia
Harriet the Spy by Louise Fitzhugh

My cousin gave me this book when I was about nine. I read it once and never even picked it up again (although I still have it somewhere). I thought the plot was weird and unrelatable, and Harriet was pretty much a brat, to say nothing of a complete jerk. I have to say that I don't really understand the book's appeal, have odd memories of it, and will probably never read it again. And it had no influence on my journaling habits whatsoever.
