This book is really interesting! I love it! It is about a girl named Nikki in 8th grade. Its about her journey through 8th grade and its really relatable. It is more appealing to girls than Diary of a wimpy kid. I Like this way more. It is interesting to see the different things Nikki is interested in like Makeup, TV, Fashion and Popstars. I recommend this book to an audience in middle school and high school!

This book is HILARIOUS! It is about a girl named Nikki Maxwell who REALLY wants a phone, but instead she gets a diary. Nikki said she would not use it but uses it anyway. But, a girl named Mackenzie Hollister (AKA: Bully) is rude to Nikki like she takes up all of Nikki's locker space even after asking her very kindly. This book is soo funny I would not even put it down!
I love the dork diaries series. I have read all of the book. I recommend this book for people who like/love drama
This book was good, I liked it. I'm not in Middle School, so I can't really relate to Nicki but this was still a good book. I recommend it if you like friendship and Middle School.
"I'm such a dork"- Nikki Maxwell really wants a phone (is that even a need, Nikki?) But instead, she receives a DIARY. If someone catches you writing in a diary, they think you're a dork. Nikki said she would NEVER use the diary her mother got her. Well, she used it anyway. Another character, MacKenzie Hollister, she is like RICH. She's the most popular girl in the 8th grade. Yet, she's a bully. She takes all of Nikki's locker space. When Nikki asks her POLITELY to move, MacKenzie just ignores her. I really liked this story. It was really funny and interesting. I couldn't put the book down! I literally begged to stay up late and read the whole thing.
This book was cute. It may be for younger kids than me to read. I will give it to my sister. She will like it.

This Dork Diary book is about a girl named Nikki Maxwell. What we’re reading is her diary. Nikki’s life is crazy, from a tattoo shop to a mean girl, Mackenzie Hollister. At the end, she accepts herself and is proud to be a “dork”. My favorite part of this book is when Nikki’s friends, Chloe and Zoey, organized a tattoo shop to get in a program to meet famous authors. They wanted to prove their worth by charging 3 books for a tattoo and donating them to charity. My favorite character is Nikki. She is a great artist. She’s the one who drew the tattoos with her lucky pen. When she was going to sign up for advanced art competition, she was shy and started clucking like a chicken. Feeling humiliated, she accidently signed up to be the Librarian’s Student Assistant. But Chloe and Zoey signed Nikki up for the competition and she wins a $500 prize. I recommend this book to all girls who are proud to call themselves a “dork” too,
