About this title

From Booklist:

Gr. 6-8. The sixth and final book in the Nikki Sheridan series has all the ingredients of a paint-by-numbers problem novel. In the previous books Nikki became pregnant and gave her baby up for adoption. Now she must tell the baby's father, who never knew about the pregnancy. She must also grapple with her parents' recent divorce. To make matters worse, her current-events class is having heated discussions about abortion, drawing her into the crossfire; an episode of school violence nearly kills some of her close friends; and an ex-boyfriend attempts suicide. Too much? Yes, were it not for Nikki herself. Her recent conversion to Christianity has inspired her to make wiser choices and right past mistakes, and she now recognizes that moving ahead means forgiving herself and others. The heavy messages will probably turn off some readers, but others will find comfort in Nikki's honest exploration of traditional Christian values. Shelley Townsend Hudson
