Dork Diaries: Drama Queen

(Written by Arpita Yogish): I've read this cool book already and I think it is quite well-planned and something unique and from the rest of the series. It's unbelievable that we've finally got a chance to read MacKenzie's side of the story! Now I've realised that although MacKenzie was the CCP Queen, has a really large and fancy house, is probably a multi-millionaire, has a penthouse-sized shoe closet, has a killer wardrobe and has easy-going parents, her life is still incomplete... 😮

Reading was too much of a toxic fest for me. The first three books in the series were excellent, filled with heart, humour and good art. But as it continues, the art style is deteriorating and in this one, I nearly threw the book out the window because of all the cat fights, mean comments and drama in it (both from Nikki and Mackenzie). Utterly sickening. Let your children read this if you must but be warned that there is no lesson to be learned in here (not even cyberbullying was properly dealt with because everyone was so obsessed with their popularity) unless you want lessons in shaming other people like "Drama Queen Mackenzie". 😡😠😬

If you have read the first book than you'll know that nikki and her bffs are meant 2 go to new York City cos they won a book competition. I hoped that this happens or ill be sooooo upset.!
