~*~*~GREAT BOOK~*~*~

This is an excellent book and I can't help wanting to explore more of Sally Warner's books. Quinney is an amazing twelve year old girl who has a talent in the listening department. She gets caught between her two best friends who are rapidly outgrowing each other. She helps rebuild a flame in a dull marriage, gives a young boy a friend, and helps her long time crush save AND get with her spontaneous best friend Marguerite. Quinney also learns that she is an important part of her family. Unlike other reviews I don't think Totally cofidential has any relevance to Harriet the Spy of which I have enjoyed both.

Go, Mary McQuinn!

Marry McQuinn Todd, Quinney, thinks she has found the perfect summer job: a listener and advice giver. She stops a divorce and gives a little boy a friend. Then, things start to get out of hand. Her crush wants a listener and so does her best friend. She has a problem: how can she keep her job a secret?This a great book for any kid age 10-13.The other reviewers compared this book to Harriet the Spy. I loved this book, but I was not that crazy about Harriet the Spy. So, don't think that the books are really that much alike. Whether or not you liked Harriet the Spy does not really predict whether you will like Totally Confidential.I thought Totally Confidential was totally fun to read.

I recommend this book!

I am ten years old and I loved this book! The characters were very detailed and I understood the author's writing. It was an exciting story and at the end of the chapters I always wanted to read on. I recommend this book to anyone who loves exciting and realistic stories. Quinny always has something new on her mind and she never takes what she has in a good way. At the end she finds something that she has to treasure for her whole life.

Totally appealing

A very sweet and oddly realistic book. Twelve year old Quinny has an idea for the perfect summer job: Professional Listener. When the clients start pouring in, Quinny gets in way over her head!Something about the tone of this book reminded me of another pre-teen classic, HARRIET THE SPY. Quinny is likeable and means well and you just can't help getting involved in her antics. I especially like the creative way it can inspire its readers to follow Quinny's example of problem solving using discussion and plain old common sense. A good contemporary book for pre-teens.
