kmaquig 's review for:

Harriet the Spy by Louise Fitzhugh

4.5

---

I was totally blown away by this one.  Such high-quality work.  You sincerely feel for Harriet.  I did feel she was written a bit young for a believable twelve-year-old, but maybe times were different.  She's extremely likeable regardless.  Hot take but Ole Golly is high-key cruel, and the solution at the ending is kind of bad.  Otherwise really good.
