I chose this book for my daughter to read, and it was a good choice because she's already run off with it! It's basically a girls' magazine in book form - very fun, visually pleasing format.
Like a magazine, it's chock full of tidbits that tweens and younger teens would be interested in. The "101 Things" run the gamut from advice on social skills to health issues, recipes to crafty kinds of things. As a young teen, I would have loved to have a book like this. My daughter is loving it now, and that's about the best recommendation I can give.
The only caveat I had was a reference to the Twilight series. For me, this is a big uh-oh because the romantic relationship in that series is extraordinarily unhealthy. And I think (and pray) that many girls are starting to catch on to that. I know my daughter has, so it's not a worry for me.
But other than that, the book is a fun read that a lot of tweens and teens would enjoy.
