Girls In Tears

Product Information

The whole thing is just awful and I'm glad I read it at 35 not as a young impressionable girl because I'm not sure what messages I would have taken away from it but none of them would have been good! The book focuses on Ellie and Russell's completely toxic relationship which is presented as really romantic and the ending is contrived and too obvious (Nadine's internet boyfriend turns out to be a 50 year old man, shock horror) and Ellie gets back with a man that constantly puts her down, objectifies her, and cheated on her with her best friend(! Ellie's romance is on its last legs, thanks to a persistent boyfriend, Nadine is "in love" with a boy she met on the Internet and is planning to go and meet him despite the other girls' insistence that things may not be quite as they seem, and Magda's hamster has died, leaving her less than happy with her friends' response to her grief. As a teenager she started work for a magazine publishing company and then went on to work as a journalist on Jackie magazine (which she was told was named after her! And Nadine is fed up with the other two lecturing her about the dangers of meeting someone on the Internet - her e-mail boyfriend sounds wonderful!

It bundles an amazing number of "WORSTS" for middle school and high school girls into a very small book written in 5th grade language. After being one of the best book series ever in my opinion, this was where the Girls series came crashing down. Ellie is bubbly fun and worries a little about her weight, Magda attracts all the boys and is like a friend you can always rely on and Nadine is full on goth chick and a little selfish and russel is tall dark and handsome like batman and just a tidg of schoolboy. A superb fourth instalment in the GIRLS series, following GIRLS IN LOVE, GIRLS UNDER PRESSURE and GIRLS OUT LATE. While she says "no" there's no exploration of this or reward/punishment - they attend a party where she drinks straight vodka to teach them all a lesson and gets trashed.

this book is amazing for young teenagers it is perfect, there is laughing, crying and DRAMA of course, i would recommend this book to anyone between th age of 11 to 15. A far cry from traditional middle-grade fiction, this British import is an eye-opening but long-winded account of life in a dingy shelter hotel. Wilson (Double Act) here introduces an animated heroine who delivers droll observations in a self-assured voice with a decidedly British accent. Just because he’s the first boy to show and interest in her doesn’t mean she should be willing to overlook anything. perfectly capturing the raw emotions her characters endure through their daily lives, while telling a darn good story that will leave readers asking, "How soon can we read the next one?

Of course, you teenagers never think that their parents understand them and, when Ellie’s dad starts to be overly critical of her, she starts to lash out. I don’t think this gives young teenage girls a good idea of a health friendship and is very surprising from Jacqueline Wilson. Girls in Tears is the fourth and final book that follows teenager Ellie and her two friends, Magda and Nadine. This was probably the weakest out of the four books, just because it felt like the title and format of 'Girls Cry When.And, as good as it is to portray teenagers being happy in relationships, I certainly don't like how the boys are characterised as only interested in sex.

Where the previous book saw the girls go off with a group of strange men, this one has Ellie and her friends getting drunk at a party. The TV show did this a lot better by working the competition into Ellie's work experience with an artist and leaving her mum's character out of it.

Magda's lost her pet and is desperately upset (though the others didn't even know she had a hamster! This time around, Ellie has to watch as all of the key relationships in her life start to fall apart. The characters in this book are great though when Ellie gets cross she can sometimes act like it is the end of the world . I have always loved all the books from Jacqueline Wilson, another I really recommend from her is “candy floss” and “clover moon”. When she gets there, it's a soft porn theater and the "boy" is an "old man" so luckly the other 2 girls had been spying on her and followed and they save her from the "pervy creeper".It feels very juvenile, verging on condescending, for a novel aimed at 14-15 year olds, yet the subject matter itself straddles that line between being too ‘adult’. Buckets of tears are wept and hundreds of tissues are sniffled into - can the girls survive these testing times? The main focus was Ellie's relationship with Russell, which didn't really develop beyond how the third book (Girls Out Late) had ended.
