This book is dramatic, and so funny! I totally recommend to other readers.
Along with all the other books in it's series, it's pretty funny and is a great story. I highly recommend it for 6-12.
The illustrations are good, but the book isn't the best. It's really cringey, and it's almost all about crushes and phones and petty rivalries. It's SUPER cringy, and by 3rd grade I hated this book already. The whole series is just super outdated. It might of been good in 2009, but in 2022?
I like it is a tiny bit cringe but I recommend it.
OMG! I really like this book! Its funny, creative, and just the best!!!! I think that you should read this book!

This book was my childhood favorite, but now its a bit cringe. I would recommend for 12 or younger since it would be getting boring after then.
Am in love with this book OMG

A little bit too cringe, but overall okay
