REVIEW: DORK DIARIES BOOK NUMBER 2

DORK DIARIES
TALES FROM A NOT-SO-POPULAR PARTY GIRL
by Rachel Renee Russell

Reading level: Ages 9-12

Hardcover: 288 pages
Publisher: Aladdin; 1 edition (June 8, 2010)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 1416980083


I absolutely LOVE this book! It is about Nikki, a Middle school student, who gets a little too busy for her liking. Mackenzie is Nikki's Enemy.She was chair person until she decided to quit, just to make Nikki cancel the dance so the school will hate her. She has to set up the dance with only six people, her, her two friends, Chole and Zoey, Vilot, Theodore, and Jenny. During the dance, Nikki also has to work at her little sister's ballet party (in a rat suit), be at the dance with her crush (in her Juliette costume), and hang out with her friends, Chole and Zoey (in a trash bag costume) all at the same time! She is very stressed and WAY too busy, read the book how she handles it with a sense of humer.

This book is great, but it says "But I just said it in my head so no one else heard it but me." alot.
 I give this book:
4/5 Blabbies.

This is a book trailer of #1
