I liked this book because I have a sister and she is the worst!

This book gets more interesting the further in you get, so don’t give up just because you think the start isn’t very interesting.

I thought it was a really good book however it wasn't Jacky's best ever book and that's why it gets a 4/5. Although I do recommend reading it. I don't want to spoil it but I thought the bit near the end that reunite the sisters is a bit overly dramatic for my liking.

four stars because there is a part that i do not like. but still a good book

I liked the storyline that highlighted being different is ok as at the beginning the two main characters did not like each other and then they did. Yes, i would recommend this book to others to read.

Its all funny and I certainly agree to recommend it to children matter if you like it or you dislike it you love somehow

great book. The characters were unique and like no other people in her books. The atmosphere created was like she was a bit moody but at the end they got along better than before and had an amazing end!

I like it because there is a girl called Martina, she hates her sister as she is opposite and always tells on her.
In the end she pushed Melissa off the Ladder and she becomes unconscious.

I loved this book my favorite character was Melissa because I think she is growing up and she is probably my age! I do not like the younger sister because she pushed her sister down the ladder and she may have died or had damage done to her skull.

Melissa is my favorite character because she loves girly stuff like me. i felt very relaxed as i read this book because its funny but also realistic. its about 2 sisters fighting and hate each other but in the end they love each other which is very realistic and so many of us can relate. its nice to read a book that is realistic because it can also help us and make us realize that there is always a happy ending. i would definitely recommend this book especially for teen girls. hope you enjoy this book as much as i did.

It was awesome! I love the way it describes their relationship and style, the way Mellisa loves pink stuff and makeup, and Marty likes her animals and her comics.

One of my favourites

This book was very funny and I didn’t want to put it down.

12 Aug 2023

I liked Matilda the painter at the hospital the best

12 Aug 2023

The start of the book didn't really pop in my head but as I was reading it, it became more and more interesting and partly funny and I mostly liked the bit when Martina went to Alisha's birthday party.

11 Aug 2023

Marty was really funny and kind. I liked it at the end when the sisters were bonding and being kind to each other. I would recommend to a friend

My sister is better than this as she doesn’t hide my toys under her bed and make me think she threw them in the garbage.

09 Aug 2023

I would recommend it to someone else because it was actually a very good book but as I was reading it ,it didn't really pop in my head they didn't describe it well but I hope everyone else enjoys it.

A story about sibling differences with lots of humour finishing in sentiment.

30 Jul 2023

I enjoyed reading this book because it's funny at times and sometimes it had sad parts. My favourite character was Marty, I like her because she has a huge imagination. Marty made up a superhero called Mighty Mart and in different parts of the book she keeps adding more features to her superhero. I didn't like it when Marty kicked Mellisa off the ladder. I recommend everyone to read this book and use their imagination to make their own superhero character.

Though the beginning took a while to get into, I loved reading this book. It took me two days to complete and was a delight.
It included themes that do happen in real life and teaches a lesson about cherishing siblings and realising how much you really love them.

23 Jul 2023

I thought it was hilarious. But I do think that at the end Marty was too soft and I was a bit disappointed.

20 Jul 2023

Best book in the world

11 Jul 2023

What I really liked about this book is that Martina and her sister hated each other and martina was mean to Melissa and Melissa was mean to Martina and they was always fighting one day Martina and Melissa came nice to each other

02 Feb 2023

It showed two sisters called Melissa old one and Martina young one. It interested me because later on they discovered each others love.

09 Jan 2023

I thought it was great because it was about a tomboy and a girly girl and how they make friends. I liked the tomboy called Marty. I would recommend it to my friends because they would love it.
