I really like the Dork Diary series but I didn't start reading the first book until I read the eighth. I couldn't read them in order but I still enjoyed and recommend them. I didn't really like the first book because I wanted so many things to happen that didn't. **SPOILER** There were parts where I wanted Makenzie (Evil gal) to just crawl under a rock and mind her own business and some parts where i just wanted Niki to right up slap that phony (Makenzie) in the face. But that's just my opinion and I wanted the main character to stand up for herself. Although, at the end of each book, she mostly had her way and even Makenzie couldn't be bothered. I really recommend this book series to ANY teenager about to enter middle school or up. I sure would recommend it to adults that are cooped up in offices all day as well!
The Dork Diaries are such an amazing series, and so real and relatable. Nikki is going through the ups and downs of middle school, dealing with crushes, and best friends, and enemies. Her writing style is so young an fresh, just like an actual 14 year old. I especially love Zoey's character, and her little quirks and such.
Meh I prefer diary of a wimpy kid because in dork diaries they are so boy crazy it’s annoying 😕 but the other series that Rachel Renee Russell wrote the misadventures of max crumbly is much better😀
This book is about a girl named Nikki who is in middle school and her dad gets a job in a new school. On Nikki first day her licker is crowded, ask the sudden it pets great she has the locker needed to the MOST popular girl in 8th grade. McKenzie Hollister!! Nikki eventually gets friend, she has a crush, but I'd going to have the worst year ever. She keeps begging her mom for the new iPhone but she says no. When mom gives her a peanut she is sure it is one but...When she opens the present it's a book. A blank book.. oh no her mom got her a DIARY, she does not think she will air in out.In the end out is her MOST prized possession.
I love the book!
