"It was like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir began singing the "Hallelujah" chorus. ..."
"... more spiritual than anything I had ever heard, even the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing the ..."
"... loud dissonant combo but . . . well, like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir singing the Hallelujah Chorus..."
These lines are from three different journals supposedly written by three entirely different real-life teenagers.
Er...supposedly...

• Excellent 17 December, 2007
I read this book in eight grade english and I'm now a sophomore in college. This semster we were asked to make a list of all the books we have ever read and then name one of those that you still remember or is your favorite from the list. My list included The Glass Castle, Marquise of O, The Freedom Train, Hamelet(more of a play), The Merchant of Venice(again more of a play), The Dairy of Anne Frank, To Kill a Mockingbird, and It Happend to Nancy. When I looked at that list I just couldn't chose any of those books over It Happend to Nancy. It gave a realestic account of what it was like to be a teenager living with HIV/AIDS and diffenatley made me think twice before I made decision because for all I know I could've been Nancy or my sister could've been.

• Inspiring 29 October, 2008
I love this book by Ms. Sparks. Its something I believe every teenage girl should read at one point in time in her life. My aunt made me read this book when I was younger and I just fell in love with it. It's a very inspiring novel about the teenager.
