so funny! definitly recommend if you are in middle school. Easy read! a relaxing joyful story with the adventures of Nikki, Chloe, Zoe, and Brandon!

I'm not a really big fan of Dork diaries but this book was actually a pretty fun book...but, well I think you should read this book because it is pretty fun!!

Dork Diaries 1: Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life is a funny book that I sometimes think is a girl book which is true but is really really funny.

I love this book! It's so funny and everyone in my class started reading it the summer before 2nd grade. I especially love the comic strips!

I'm a boy, so I didn't really like this book. It's about a girl named Nikki who is a dork. Instead of a phone, her mom gave her a diary. My sister has almost all the books, so it's a series.

Dork Diaries 1: Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life is a book that is really popular for girls but when I read it, it was ok I guess. But the best part is that it's really funny.

This book is soon funny! Especially for a middle schooler! She has so many mini adventures with her friends, sister, and Brandon! Read ittt!

This book is incredible. It is a modern day classic that you can find nearly anywhere. The lead character in this book is relatable yet at the same time is unique making this book all the more real seaming. You must read your book if you are even the least bit girly.

this is a great book. I love how you can relate so much to Nikki. I loved the plot and I don't know about you but I love the drama. Rachel Renee Russell did a wonderful job of letting the reader really get into Nikki's head.
