I’ve read it when i was a teen, and now, in May 2024, i’ve read it again — and i’m so happy that i did! 
this book makes me feel as warm and happy as it did ten (or something) years ago. 
some parts of this book are certainly dated, but i think it could also age even. 
overall, this is still a “feel-good” book that made me feel lighter again (for the duration of reading this book).

and god!! i love judy so much!! little me was certainly in love with her too and didn’t realize that (which is funny for me to think about now). 
my 5-star rating is certainly subjective, but i can’t rate this book lower — not with how much joy it brought to me now, when all things seem so bad
