Hidden Diary #1: Cross My Heart
Book One, Cross My
Lucy Larson is looking forward to summer—what could be better than spending twelve weeks on a California beach with her cousin? So when her cousin cancels, Lucy's about to pack up and go home. But then she stumbles upon an old letter that mentions a hidden diary, cryptic clues, and best friends; Lucy dives headfirst into the mystery instead and sets out to find the diary. And just who is that cute boy, Jake, anyway?
Book Two, Make A
Now it's time to jump into their first Diary Deed. Serena decides it's the perfect opportunity to celebrate Lucy's birthday! Lucy isn't so sure. She knows only a few of the girls on the Island, some of whom have been pretty rude. Will anyone come? In the midst of their plans, one of the invitations comes back to Lucy—with a threat. She wonders if she made a big mistake. Should she cancel the party ... or face the threat head-on?
Each of the two-book volumes in this exciting four-volume series for girls aged 8-12 includes fun, friends, family, gentle Christian faith, and a fast-paced read.

2.5 stars.
The story has potential and it's sweet and clean, but the main protagonist is a bit of a Debbie Downer to be honest. I really didn't enjoy reading about her although I liked other characters in the books, such as her new friend Serena and her quasi-little sister, Claudette. That said, I am in no hurry to read more of these books. In fact, this one ended in such a way that another book (and another, there are like 6 more) seems unnecessary. I did like the idea of an old diary giving inspiration for new, modern adventures though. I recommend this read to young girls about 10-12 years of age.
