REVIEW: I SO DON'T DO MAKEUP BY BARRIE SUMMIE
From the cover:
What's better than a sleepover? A sleepover with makeovers! Sherry and her friends have an awesome time with eye shadow, glitter, and more hair products than a salon. But when the girls wake up the next morning with serious skin issues, Sherry is freaked. Someone must have tampered with her makeup!It turns out that the mall's cosmetics kiosk has had lots of products returned by upset customers. Sherry is determined to get to the bottom of things. After all, she's a bit of a crime-solving celebrity (well, at least in the spirit world). Ghost academies around the world are impressed by Sherry's and her ghost mom's skills.
And if anyone can solve a mystery involving mascara, it's Sherry Holmes Baldwin.
This is now my FAVORITE book EVER! I really love mystery's, so night after night here was the conversation:
" Ellie! Time for bed!"
" One more chapter mom?"
" Okay,but only one more! It's getting late."
Each chapter leaves you in suspense, you can't stop reading!
This book is about 13 year old Sherry Holmes Baldwin trying to solve a case at a store called "Naked Makeup". Your probably asking "Whats the case?", well I'll tell you. Actually, there are several cases in the book at Naked Make-up here I'll list them:
1. 2 jars full of lip gloss made costumers lips burn like CRAZY!!!
2. A cream called "Nite Sprite Cream" made peoples faces red, blotchy, and brittle.
They have a few suspects but I'm going to leave that to you to find out.
This book is AMAZING. It leaves you in suspense. All the characters are my favorites! I give this book:
5/5 Blabbies
Keep on reading!

AND THE WINNER IS...............................
ALANNAH J. !!!
Thank you to everyone who entered my very first contest! And your entries earned money towards buying a well for Ethiopia with H20 Ethiopia! Personally, I think you all should have won because you are ALL WINNERS!
I have 41 followers...WOOT! Thank you to those who brought me over the top, and we celebrated with an Treatza Pizza from DAIRY QUEEN!
I just did a "Book Talk" for an assignment in front of my class. It's a presentation about your book for the class. I did The Dork Diaries 2, (the book we gave away), and dressed as Nikki Maxwell the main character. If you can believe it, it's really hard to find an outfit as a grade 8 girl when you are in grade 6. The class said it was really good, and I had tons of fun.

REVIEW: DORK DIARIES BOOK NUMBER 2
DORK DIARIES

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.
