My favourite person was Nikki because she is kind and caring.I would certainly recommend it.

This time, the story is told from MacKenzie’s point of view for part of it, which totally shocked me—but in the best way. I wasn’t sure I’d like it at first, but it was actually really cool to see inside her head (even if she’s still super extra). There’s SO much going on—missing diaries, sneaky plans, and Nikki trying to survive the chaos while still being her dorky, awesome self. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! I also laughed out loud a bunch because Nikki’s voice is still hilarious, and her friends Chloe and Zoey are as iconic as ever.

I like Nick

In this book, Mackenzie takes over the diary (yes, THE Mackenzie!), and I was kind of surprised because I usually love hearing from Nikki. It was fun seeing things from Mackenzie’s side for a change, but I missed Nikki's funny and awkward moments. Mackenzie is just so full of herself sometimes, and it got a bit annoying. The drawings were still super cool and the writing was funny like always. There were parts that made me laugh, and I liked getting a little peek into Mackenzie’s world, even if she’s the total opposite of Nikki.

All I can say that Mackenzie is so dramatic and fun to read I always like to read her parts out loud and do a sassy voice and If I mess up I will start all over again

It's really hilarious!!! It's all about teens drama and crushes

16 Jul 2025

This is an amazing book that you should read!! it is a great book and - if you aren't into surprises- here's a spoiler (Nikki, Brianna and Makenzie are the main characters and Nikki feels like Brianna is a very bratty sister to her!).

I love this book

12 Jul 2025

I really liked how it showed that even though McKenzie was really mean she was trying to get through being pretty much ignored by her parents and that still doesn’t make what she was doing ok but it could be why she was so mean.

09 Jul 2025

I liked the bully in this book because she stole her diary but then later gave it back

20 Feb 2025

It was good because there's alot of things happening at once. My favourite character was Nikki 'cause she's cool. I would recommend this book for teenagers or kids who like drama.

It was a fiction book about a rich girl and a not so rich girl and it’s a book all about friends and confidence.

Amazing

02 Sep 2024

Very good and dorky

27 Aug 2024

I really liked this book, however, I think this is not one of Rachel Renee Russell’s best books! My favourite character was Nikki as well as her two best friends. I wanted to read this book because I had read other books written by Rachel, as well as the colourful front cover. I would recommend to a friend if they are a fan of these type of books.

23 Aug 2024

I love how Mackenzie Hollister has been in Nickys diary for the past few months but she is not a good person because she is not nice to Nicky and she destroyed her boyfriend Brandon by stealing the letter from Brandon how unkind of her

22 Aug 2024

This book is a fiction book. I like this book because in my opinion it is funny and interesting to read. If i had to recommend this book to anyone, I would recommend it to children aged 8-12.

18 Aug 2024

I liked how you heard from the bully perspective

18 Aug 2024
