Like all the other books in the regular series, these books were written by hired ghost-writers who were given an outline of the stories they were to write.  The BSC Friends Forever series follows on from the regular series, the order of the books are:

Super Special #1 Everything Changes
#1 Kristy’s Big News
#2 Stacey Vs. Claudia
#3 Mary Anne’s Big Break-Up
#4 Claudia and the Friendship Feud
#5 Kristy Power
#6 Stacey and the Boyfriend Trap
#7 Claudia Gets Her Guy
#8 Mary Anne’s Revenge
#9 Kristy and the Kidnapper
#10 Stacey’s Problem
#11 Welcome Home, Mary Anne
#12 Claudia and the Disaster Date
Super Special #2 Graduation Day

I actually enjoyed BSC Friends Forever.  I hated them when I was a kid. But I do enjoy them now, they work into the series well and end the entire Baby Sitters Club Saga in the best possible way.  I got sick of the Stacey vs. Claudia thing, I never liked those two characters so it annoyed me that they had to feature so much in this series with their stupid fight. 

The club is back to the four founding members, Kristy, Mary Anne, Claudia and Stacey.  This series begins where the regular series finished off and continues to the end of the school year where the girls finally graduate middle school.  Super Special #2 Graduation Day is a slightly longer book than the others and features each girl as they prepare for their graduation.  The series ended in 2000, the first Baby-Sitters Club books was published about fifteen years earlier.
