This book is about a girl named Nicki Maxwell is is going to start a new middle school. She doesn't really fit in and is considered a "dork". I and my friends love this series, and can't wait when new books come out. It is considered one of my favs, and all the characters are interesting. 5 stars!
I really liked this book because it made me laugher in so many parts in the book. I would totally recommend this book and rate it s 5 star. That's how much I love this book.
Dork Diaries 1: Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life Is a book about a girl named Nikki Russel who starts a private school because she gets a scholarship from her dad working on the schools' bug problems, and how her locker is next to the most popular girl in school.
I dont really enjoy dork diary that mcuh but this was proably one of the best books I have ever read in that series. It had more humor and it was really fun to read to any siblings or cousins I really enojed this book hope more come out soon.
This book is a pretty funny book. I don't recommend this for older children, this is a better book for 3-5ish graders. But I do have to say it isn't all that bad.
Nikki Maxwell is a typical cliche teen. She begs her mom for an iPhone, but gets a diary instead. She starts in a new school, has a crush, and tries to stay away from the mean girl. I didn't really like this book, and I probably wouldn't recommend it.
Not my favorite book, that's for sure. Nikki was just a cliche teen. And I thought she was kinda sassy as well. If you like dork diaries, you would probably like this book, but i didn't.
Dork Diaries is a pretty good series. It's protagonist is a very typical dork, and her love interest is a typical floppy hair boy. The mean girl is easy to dislike and Nikki's friends are the sidekicks of most stories. But it's entertaining enough to keep you interested.
I like this book because the main character's life is funny and the things that she does is also funny.Also it sometimes relates to my life.
