I am pleasantly surprised! Each features 2 (of the 5) main characters and who are either sisters / stepsisters. Looks saccharine, but the Sweeties tackle important preteen problems (this book: eating disorders and lying.)

Criticism? The characters are so white (except one who is mixed) and so straight ("boys" = popular topic). But my new goal is to diversify the authors and books I read. So, no worries.
