I thought this book is overrated. NO way should a girl act this way this young.

This book is about a 11 year old girl and all of her friends that are just starting middle school. The main character of the book is into drama but because of her grades she can't do drama in middle school. Her friend is going out for the soccer team and she is really nervous, because in elementary school and this camp that she went to, they did not have to try out they just joined the team. So for her she is really scared that she is going to get cut. But as for Grace she is mad because she can not go out for drama but if she can get a B average she can join the drama club the next year in middle school.

September 7, 2010I picked this up from my 11 year old cousins bookshelf because I was really, really bored.
WTF? I'm PRETTY sure sixth graders do NOT act or think like this.
I couldn't get through it. and it's very rare for me not to get through a book. even if it IS crap.

This book was a nice change as each of the main characters were the narrator throughout the book. There were grammatical errors throughout the book, which included the girls’ messages in emails being wrong. I understand the IM having text talk, but Morgan should have made them use proper English for the emails, as that is teaching young readers incorrect grammar for no real reason. Some of the drama was ridiculous, but did get resolved well at the end.
The thing that bothers me the most is what’s happening with Grace. She clearly has ADD/ADHD and struggles to read, but Morgan keeps making it seem like she simply can’t focus to read, but only reading seven pages in one hour isn’t someone who simply can’t focus. It would be nice if it was identified later in the series, so people with ADD or people like grace can learn that it’s totally normal and it happens to a lot of people.

I have basically nothing to say about this book because I bought it when I was about 9 or 10 years old. So, I don't even think that I can elaborate more on giving the reviews for this book. It was a series book and if a 9 year old me would like to describe this book, all I can say is that it is a good book to read as a starter.

The story is about these girls who used to go to camp with each other but part ways at the end of summer and go on with there lives in different places, yet they still keep in touch through an online website of the camp where you can stay connected through the web. But not everything is perfect for there lives even if they type it, with so many things going on they have to learn how to cope with it all and get out of the camp vibes to face the world head on.
I really liked how the book introduced there different lives not just through e-mail but also there stories in different chapters so I could relate to what they were facing as a human being. Because its not easy to transition to a new life after camp for 8 weeks.
I would recommend this book to anybody who loves reading and learning about other peoples lives and how they compare to others way of life and how they adjust to a new environment and grade and friends because entering 6th grade is not easy and making new friends is even harder.

Here is a summary of Camp Confidential TTYL:
Camp Confidential TTYL is one on the best books I have read because I loved the way it was told. I loved this book so much that I started to read Camp Confidential RSVP (the next book).This book was about four girls from Camp Lakeview’s bunk 3C and are happy to start sixth grade at a new school. When the girls get home this take an unwanted turn. Natalie is having troubles with boys and her best friend. Alex tries out for the soccer team but an injury steps in. Grace wants to join drama club but her mom and dad say no. Finally, Jenna is having problems with her family. All these girls have problems with their new school, new year, or family, but on problem they all face and that’s missing each other

I may be an adult reading this book but it does give me pleasure and an escape from the adult life. I am rereading this series but I am still pleasantly surprised by the storyline. I like that the author keeps the writing in the different perspectives of the girls. Since I am reading other books, I personally appreciate it so that I can remember the main girls from the cabin. It could be considered a filler kind of segment but it was still captivating enough. It was well written and mostly relatable. I look forward to reading the next book and honestly finishing the entire series. I recommend this book to any teenager or adult that enjoys girly books about anything and everything that teenage girls go through without the heaviness of reality.

TTLY was a good book. The bunk 3C girls are minning each other during the school year. Everyone is having a different problem. Alex is worried about soccer tryouts. Natalie is having friend and boy issues. Grace is having problems with grades and Drama Club. And Chealsea's dad is sick. Everyone's problems are pretty much solved except for Chealsea. Everyone feels bad for her and want to do something to help. Then their counselour tells them that there is going to be a Lakeview reunion in New York. everyone is so excited. TTYL is a bread book to read if you liked other Camp Confidential books.

This book is really good.
i loved the part where Jenna picks her outfit for Nicole's party and is really disappointed because it's really boring. There were boys there, but all they did was watch movies and eat pizza, which she could do at her father's house anyway. I didn't like how Jenna stopped pranking though. It's a part of her, and she loves to do it! Jenna shouldn't be "retired"!
I feel that Natalie's problems are not realistic for an eleven year old girl!i mean, what sixth grader has to choose between a cute boy at camp and a cute boy at school? Also, at her age, should she really be going on a DATE? I agree with Hannah, her best friend, that she's growing up too fast.

This is a great book. I really loved it. I love the whole series. Read the books before this in the series before it. This is my kind of book. It is about girls from a sleep away camp, in the same book, and they leave camp, but stay in touch. It is really good, and talks about most of the girls from their bunk at camp, starting middle school. Each girl goes through their days at middle school, and the girls alternate talking every chapter. This is a great book. I would also read the books before this one in the series, because they are also very good. I also like the books after this in the series.

After reading this book, I learned that when life is somehow bringing you down, something good is going to happen, not now, but later on. When reading this book I noticed that they are true best friends and that they talk about something through text messages. Having friends is fun, but not all of the time. I would most likely recommend this book to those who like girl books and middle school. I would recommend this book to those who likes books that has messages like paragraph, which tells which person is talking, basically meaning those who likes Friendship books.

This book (recently found out, a series) is a quick summer read. I liked this book because it was a cute little story that kept me interested. This book kept me hooked till the very end. I couldn't stop flipping the pages. The four girls portrayed in this book, Natalie, Jenna, Alex, and Grace were always entertaing. I loved learning about these girls and I hope I will be able to read the entire series soon.

Here's the story......I ordered it, read it, then relised it was the fifth in the series...I enjoyed this book even though it was a little while into the series. It felt like the first book in a series though. Melissa J. Morgan explained most events from the first four pretty well, amd I didn't get confused. Well written though.

May 21, 2009This is a flashback review. I read this book in the 6th grade. This book is about a group of girls who are in summer camp and they are going through the teenager phase. This book taught me that i should express my feeling to my close friends and talk about problems with them.
September 27, 2009
when the girls start school again they are all caught up in their own problems with school and sports. Meanwhile they realize that their own best friend is suffering more than they are but they are unable to help because of the problem with distance.

I started reading the series a while back and i started with this, not knowing it was the 5th. I never backtracked and i am glad i didn't. It's definitely a series for girls in middle school and possibly in high school if you don't mind reading about middle school girls.
December 25, 2011
Again this one was just like all the others, though I am loving how we get a view from all of the characters rather then have a book on just one. It is keeping it better. I will read the next one because I am desperate to get my badge
3/5 for me

This hits on many issues that middle school girls may deal with, like mean girls, friends drifting apart, boys, and parental relationships. It's probably better if you've read the previous books on the series.

This is a great friendship story. It is about a bunch of friends from camp who became really close in the 8 weeks they spent together over the summer. All the girls are going into middle school and are sharing there experiences through a camp blog and IM's.
August 12, 2016
very quick read - in terms of Gossip Girls this is child's play which was extremely refreshing, mixture of dialoge, IM chat and blogging, 6th grade girls who all met at summer camp and share their experiences with one another about what it means to be in middle school
