Book of Interest: Diary of a Girl Next Door: Betty


Along with DC Comics, the Archie Comics were some of the first comics I read. And the Betty and Veronica comics are some of my favorites.

I would like to read this. I've read a few Diary of a Girl Next Door comics and they're funny. Betty writes down all the crazy and wacky things that are going on in her life. I remember in one story she lost her diary and was trying to find it before anyone else did. I think this is going to be really cute.

Description:

Archie Comics is excited to present this debut title in the cartoon diary genre!

Betty Cooper is embarking on her first year of high school. It's sure to be filled with ups and downs, but with her trusty diary by her side, she'll be able to get through it all. She's a smart girl with a kind heart, so her freshman year should be easy-peasy, right?

Well, throw in some major BFF drama with her longtime pal Veronica Lodge and things get off to a rocky start. Veronica's rich, ruthless and snobby-the total opposite of Betty. And in high school where social status means everything, Betty and Veronica can't be the same besties they once were.

Everyone's favorite girl-next-door is diving head first into her high school career and extracurricular activities-from dog training to peer mediation to BMX competitions, Betty Cooper can do it all-but can she get by without a little help from her friend? Find out in this heartwarming tale of the scariness that is starting high school in Archie's first-ever venture into the hugely popular journal series, with Diary of a Girl Next Door: Betty.
