Okay, that rant over, I have to say this book just felt like filler. It’s not totally unrealistic to finally make the ship sail instead of dragging it out for silly plot drama that would never actually happen in real life. I know people who dated in high school and got married. I don’t know if it’s because they’re only in middle school and the author thinks a series about middle schoolers is no place for a serious relationship, but by the next book Nikki will be a high schooler. There have been so many moments where I thought they would finally make their relationship official, but instead this series is determined to stick with the “Nikki is always referring to Brandon as a good friend like their entire romance hasn’t actually happened.” It’s frustrating at this point. It’s been twelve books and Nikki and Brandon have obviously liked each other for all of those books to no avail. Rachel Russell's writing was significantly better in the earlier books when they were first picking up momentum. Some may view my opinion as the difference of age/intended audience and while it may be that, only partially. The earlier books have been better by FARRRR! This one was really short and also, not much happened.the whole book spans a week and it was just a let down. The author started the Max Crumbly series and while I'm not going to get into that one, maybe that one is better. The series is just dragging on now because it's been 12 books and the school just finished and Nikki and Brandon have been talked about for years but STILL are not together. I understand that its not a YA book but still, there wasn't much content and I felt most of it was page fillers. There are many 200 page books that have stronger plot and climax. I have to say, I was really disappointed with this book. I just want to know how it endsssssss, anyways: I just want it to get back to its roots, being a positive influence for adorkable girls trying to find their way in a super awkward time of their lives.įavourite sentence: “Why is my life such a giant bucket of puke?!!”įirst off, I started reading this series when I was younger and just moved along as the books kept coming out. Yes, I’m whingeing about this instalment. But that’s an aside because I basically adore the sweetness of the illustrations in this series. I’m not sure if it’s just me but it seems like the boys in this series are becoming prettier than the girls. Girl, the plebs that don’t live in your ivory tower wish we had your problems. Recently Nikki’s had her own reality show and in this book she has the hugest problem! She has to choose between going on a national tour with her band as an opening act or go to Paris, plus two boys have crushes on her. With misunderstandings between friends, deep and meaningfuls in the janitor’s closet at school and an abundance of embarrassing moments, I found this series relatable, appropriate for its target audience and really cute. Once upon a time, Dork Diaries was a lovely series about adorkable Nikki, her BFF’s Chloe and Zoey, her crush Brandon, and her arch-nemesis Mackenzie. So in conclusion, this book was good if you are the right age to read it or else you will find it pointless and boring. But, like I said, it was addicting I have to admit I read almost the whole book in one night because I just couldn't put it down. ![]() ![]() I HAVE READ BOOKS WHERE PEOPLE ARE ON THE VERGE OF DEATH AND SHE IS WORRYING ABOUT HER TINY REPUTATION. I think you have to be the right age though. Cons: The point of the book was absolutely pointless, it was too easy, it was very immature, and it was somewhat boring. Pros: It was addicting I have to admit I couldn't put it down, I think other people might like it, it made me feel certain things like being sorry for her, and I thought the illustrations were hilarious. So now, here is a list of the pros and cons of this book that I did not state yet or have stated. I don't think I am going to read this again like ever. Anyway, I found myself getting bored reading this super predictable book. Also I think that third graders pretty much love crush drama. But, if you were like a third grader, I would recommend this book to you because it is a simple topic to understand and a short read. Nikki's crush got jealous then couldn't decide whether or not to go to Paris or her concert. Next, Mackenzie started to post pictures of them together and say they were dating. Basically, the point of this book was that this transfer student that had a crush on Nikki. All the other books leading up to this were OK, but, this was so ridiculous.
