This book is about Nikki, who goes to the biggest diva's birthday party. It was a disaster. She also tries to go to the Halloween dance and be in three different places in costume at once. I love this book because I like Diary of a Wimpy Kid and this is a female version of it. Also, I like it

because she tries to be fair and be a great friend and be in lots of places at once, and I like to be a great friend and do things for other people also. I would totally recommend this book for other people also.

This is the second installment of the DORK DIARIES, the girls version of the DIARY OF A WIMPY KID books for boys.

It is written in a diary form with drawings. When I told my fifth grade girls that I had the second book in the series, they got very

excited, since most of them had already read the first installment.

Nikki is the heroine of this series. She is in middle school and is a great artist. She has two BFFs, Chloe and Zoey, and a crush on a popular boy named Brandon. There is also a queen bee named MacKenzie. Nikki gets involved with the Halloween dance. She has to plan and organize it - and MacKenzie wants her to fail.

The story is told in a very charming way and has a lot of good cultural references. You want to root for Nikki and boo MacKenzie. The story is a little unrealistic, but I still accepted it hook, line, and sinker.

I enjoy this series and so do all the girls I have given it to. So curl up and enjoy this very funny story!

Nikki ends up getting tricked into organising the Halloween dance and, despite being double-booked as a rat at another party, manages to make the dance a success. She even gets together with her secret crush - Brandon.

This book is about a girl named Nikki. Nikki wants to be popular and she finally has Brandon. Her rival mean girl named Makenzie has invited Nikki and her friends, Chloe and Zoey to her birthday party. All three of the girls, Nikki, Chloe, and Zoey are all excited to go. But they figure they need
Show More
dates. Finally they all get dates and go. But as they get there, the figure out that it's just a scam from Makenzie.

This book is surprisingly interesting. I never thought I would read a book like this. I was just bored on day and got hooked in. It was amazing. Many people should read this book. Most people would like it. Others can learn from it. Well that's what I think could happen. People should take my advice and see how good it is.

AMAZING BOOK!

A rather run-of-the-mill take on the sitcom standard "main character promises to be in too many places at once."
