1. I can see a setup for a fifth book. For example: The author could expound on Zoe's sexuality and writing, Angela's new geek relationship and life outside sorority, and is Maddie going to go back to California for school or find somewhere closer to home? And how is her depression and how are her and Ian?2. There were a lot of social problems packed into one book: rape, homelessness, depression, infidelity, sexuality, homesexuality, "the freshman fifteen," college transitions, sorority/fraternity life. It packed a punch.3. You could definitely see the growth and change in personality of each character. I am one of those girls who started to read the Internet Girls series when I was in the fifth grade, long before I understood anything about the subject matter of the first two books and long before it was even called the Internet Girls series. They became my comfort books, the ones that I kept in the bathroom and re-read over and over again for no specific reason other than they made me feel at home. When I entered high school, I re-read them again and found that suddenly they weren't just a comfort read, but a very educational read, as Lauren Myracle had smoothly covered most of my doubts and insecurities about entering high school.I am currently a freshman in college, and am so glad that this book came out at this time, because it did exactly the same thing. I saw so many of my worries reflected in Angela, Maddie, and Zoe, and that made me feel like it was okay for me to feel those things. It is okay for me to feel lost, it is okay for me to struggle to find the closest friends, it is okay for me to feel alienated by certain groups - that doesn't mean there is anything wrong. That reminder of normalcy is one of the biggest gifts that a YA novel can give a reader, and so I am thankful that it was given to me by this fourth installment.
