Davies presents a true coming-of-age story of self-discovery, that is sure to entertain fans of the Lemonade Wars series. What I thought about it: I usually prefer first-person point pf views, but in this case I love the third person narrative. The author perfectly described every character's feelings exceedingly well. The hardships that the characters had to overcome were relatable to me, and the story was realistic. The book kind of reminds me of Andrew Clements' novels which I love. The short entries of poetry were very enlightening. I've noticed that the books have become more and more serious as the series progresses, and I hate to admit it, but that's just part of growing up. The added twist to the story was the mystery of the candy hearts and I think that it tied the story together very well. Overall I think that boys and girls alike would enjoy this story. ~ifeelbookish

This book was good. I liked it because it was worded very well and the pictures made it come to life in a way that other books don't. If anyone thought that the other books in the series were the weirdest, well, this one was crazier! It was about two kids named Andy and Terry who are making a treehouse movie, but Andy keeps bothering the director and so he gets thrown out of his own home! It doesn't really matter if you read the books before it to understand it. I think this book fits all the categories so I would recommend it to everyone!
