I love this book to it's to die for
Personally, i think this book is pretty good. im in the 5th grade, and ive been reading since 2nd grade. (thanks to my older sister) alot of people dont like how the protagonist, Nicki talks alot about boys and crushes and romantic teenager problems. But personally i think its just sort of realistic, Nicki is not in the 4th grade, shes a teen. This book isnt technically about a fun adventure with no worrys or stress, its realistic "slice of life" book. it speaks about growing pains and i think its interesting since i like books with drama and realistic ideals, usually. even in manga i like it when for example, attack on titan isnt all just about the titans but also shows the characters personalities and personal goals and stuff like that, friendships being broken and stuff that hurts the reader because of how realistic it is, but also has fiction like titans. Back to dork diaries, this is one of the only non-manga books i like, i will say Nicki can get a bit whiny and makes it a bit less enjoyable but overall i really like the idea and plot of this book, no its not a Diary of the Wimpy Kid "rip-off", its different in its own way because its more grown-up and usually girls struggle alot more with growing up so its natural Dork Diaries feels grown. I love this book! It can be very stereotypical tho, just because Nicki is a new "nerdy girl" who gets picked on, and on top of that her enemy is Mackenzie Hollister, the most popular girl in school. I like how much the book has so many twist and turns.
Love this book! 👍😍
Wimpy kid rip off! I like wimpy kid better because if am honest, Nicki (in the book) just thinks about crushes and boys. Am in grade 6 by the way.
Its LITERALLY wimpy kid book rip off!
i love wimpy kid to but dork diaries is diferent it talks about the difficulty of having little sisters and wimpy kid just says what happend with his brother but like i said i am into both in 5th grade
i like dork diaries but it's kinda a rip off of diary of a wimpy kid. dork diaries is more of a crush, boyfriend and dramatic life situation but diary of a wimpy is fun. Nicki Maxwell has a crush on brandon and so dose Makcaenzi and they fight. are they even allowed to have a crush?
