Publisher: Aladdin
Date: 2009
Reading Level: 10-12
Number of Pages: 288
Genre: Fiction
Summary of plot: When Nikki Maxwell starts eighth grade at a new school, her mother gives her a diary, Nikki would rather have a new iPhone so she can impress her schoolmates, but instead, she begins to chronicle her life through words and drawings. Readers learn about Nikki's irritating little sister, her crush on Brandon, her friends Chloe and Zoey, the popular mean girl, MacKenzie, and her tattoo art project for the art competition. The book does not follow one particular plotline, but instead, meanders through the daily life dramas of angst-ridden Nikki. It does culminate with some exciting developments -- both at the art show and with her heartthrob science lab partner.
Readers Reaction: It wasn't my favorite book. the language was bad and I don't think that I would recommend to any of my 3rd graders
Potential Problems: Language is the biggest problem that I saw
Recommendation: I wouldn't recommend.
