I chose to read the book Here's to you Rachel Robinson by Judy Blume. This was a great book and I recommend it to people who are very organized and love to play an instrument, however I am the opposite of those things and still enjoyed the book. But if you are like those things, it will be easier for you to relate to the character. This book is written in first person, which means that it's from the main character's point of view, in this case Rachel's point of view. This book is also the sequel to the book Just As long As We're Together by Judy Blume. I always thought that Rachel was a snobby girl from Stephanie's (the main character in Just as Long as We're Together) point of view, but from Rachel's point of view, Stephanie looks like a brat. I think that I might have liked this book better if I had read it before Just as Long as We're Together.

Here’s to You Rachel Robinson is about a young teenager named Rachel who has lots of problems in her family and some at school. One of her problems is her relationship with her brother, Charles. Charles, who has been expelled from boarding school, now has to live at home and is going to a local school. Another problem is that Rachel is a straight A student and everyone wants her to be part of their program such as a play, or a program just for straight A students. What will Rachel decide? Will her relationship with Charles improve? Read the book to find out more.
