One for the Murphys is the absolute best books that I have ever read, by far. In the beginning it was really emotional, but I didn't cry because Carly was strong. I wanted to be strong with her, but the end was different. I cryed a lot, while they were exchanging gifts. After I finshed though, I cryed like Carly was there in front of me, crying with me. Carly was so courageous and brave. I wish I was more like that. She was definitelty more softened by Dan the Man, Michael Eric, Adam, but mostly Mrs. Murphy. She made Carly want to be who she is. The name of this book is perfect, and you will understand in the chapter "One for the Murphys." I loved it so much, and I wish so much that Carly was real. I hope there will be more books about Carly and if something else happens. I really got attached her during the story!

Bye Carly! I love you!
