Cherry Ames

Cherry Ames is a very awesome vintage book series.  The books were written and published from 1943-1968. Then, in 2005,  Springer Publishing started publishing some of them as paper backs. 
The books were first published by Helen Wells. She decided after writing Cherry Ames, Visiting Nurse. To work on writing something else(Vicki Barr, Flight Stewardess series).  Julie Campbell Tatham took over writing.  Later on, Helen Wells wrote them.
The first Cherry Ames books were made during WWII, so after she graduated; she became an Army Nurse.  During that tme, she was a
  • Flight Nurse
  • Cheif Nurse
  • Veteran's Nurse
  • plus an Army Nurse.
There are twenty-seven books in the series. I have only read what I own, which is twelve of them. I hope to collect them all.
I got some of the information from http://www.series-books.com/cherryames/cherryames.html

Hello, Gorgeous!

Sorry, I have not written in a while. But, here's a new post!

Hello Gorgeous is a series of four books.  It is about a girl named Mickey. Her mom owns the coolest hair salon in town, Hello, Gorgeous!.  Mickey's life practically revolves around hair and beauty. Almost all Mickey's life she has dreamed of getting to work in the salon.  Then finally, as a birthday present when she turned thirteen; her dream came true!  She would get to work three days a week and was hired as a sweeper. But, you've got to start somewhere.  Mickey soon learned the hard way that her job was more than sweeping up hair.
