Girl Talk is series of books by L.E. Blair for teenage girls, telling school adventures of four American teenagers in junior high school: Sabrina, Allison, Randy, and Katie. The series takes place in the fictional small town of Acorn Falls, Minnesota. The books were published by Golden Books.

The series, consisting of 45 books, was published in the 1990s. There were spin off products, like board games, and special edition books about fun things to do when bored, and a book filled with advice from Allison. Each book featured an introduction to each girl on the first page, a phone conversation between two or more girls, a poll on the readers opinions about the books, and the earlier ones featured all the books with a quick summary. Later books featured a list of the books with no summaries.

The books often featured chapters that were phone conversations the girls had.

Characters
 Rowena "Randy" Zak is a new student from New York City with dark brown eyes and spiked black hair; she has a punk, wild style. She is originally from New York, but moved to Acorn Falls with her divorced mother, Olivia, an artist, who grew up there. She is an only child. Randy is very creative and is also a musician and loves to play the guitar and the drums.

Allison Cloud is a native American Indian with long black hair, who does well in school. She lives with her parents, grandmother, seven-year-old brother, Charlie, and baby sister, Barrett. Her favorite subject in school is English, and Mrs. Staats is her favorite teacher. She loves to read. Her family also has two gray tabby cats. She may also have a crush on Billy Dixon.

Sabrina "Sabs" Wells has curly red hair, likes to dress preppy and casual, and loves fashion and magazines. Her ultimate goal is to become an actress in Hollywood. She is the youngest of five, and the only girl. She lives with her parents and her brothers Luke (who is in high school), Mark (who is in eighth grade), and Sam (her twin, who is four minutes older than she is and teases her about it). Her oldest brother, Matthew, is away at college. Her family also has a cocker spaniel named Cinnamon, and Sabs often claims to be on a diet.

Katherine "Katie" Campbell has straight honey-blond hair and color-coordinated clothes, excels in school, figure skates and plays ice hockey. She has a sixteen-year-old sister named Emily, whom she calls "Princess Emily." Her father, who played semi-pro hockey, died when she was ten years old. Her mother marries a French Canadian man partway through the series, and she gains a stepbrother named Michael, who is her age, and whom Sabrina likes. Katie likes Scottie Silver. Katie thinks everyone expects her to be perfect, and to be like her sister.

Stacy Hansen is the spoiled daughter of the school principal, and Sabrina's rival. Stacy has long blond hair. Her best friends are Eva, Laurel, and B.Z. (short for Bethany Zoe), who also do not get along with Sabrina and her friends, but in Peer Pressure, Laurel and Katie form a friendship, which was never mentioned again in any other books. This is similar to Allison's relationship with a girl in her swimming class, who was also not mentioned again.

Laurel "Ice Queen" Spencer is Stacy's best friend and in book nine she has a brief friendship with Katie. She has long brown hair and brown eyes. She has an older sister, Lara who is "perfect"  Lara may be the reason Laurel is so frosty.

While the girls were all friends, it seems that they each had one best friend. Katie had Sabrina, and Randy had Allison.
