My favourite book to read

27 Jul 2025

Okay, so Dork Diaries is honestly one of my favorite series ever! I started reading it just for fun, but now I’m completely hooked. Nikki is so funny and awkward in the BEST way—like, I feel like she’s writing straight from my brain sometimes. Her drama with school, crushes, mean girls, and trying to fit in is totally real, but it’s also hilarious and full of those “OMG same!” moments.

Great book. I really enjoyed reading it.

It’s all about a girl named Nikki Maxwell who writes in her diary about her life at school, her friends, her enemy Mackenzie (ugh), and her crush Brandon (he’s so nice!). Nikki is super funny and sometimes a bit awkward, but that’s what makes her awesome and real. I felt like I was reading a book written by my best friend!

I loved how relatable it is. Crushing over a guy. Unsure if he likes you back. Bullies. Unexpected best friends. My favourite characters are definitely the trouble trio - Chloe,Zoey and Nikki

My favourite character is Nikki because she is a really good artist .I dislike Mackenzie because she bes rude to Nikki and says mean stuff about her.I disliked the part when Nikki fell over in the canteen because she got upset and ran away crying.

Dork diaries is an interesting and drama-filled story! The characters in the book are nikki, Chloe, Zoey, Brianna and Mackenzie.

29 Aug 2024

I have read this book a couple of times and it never gets old! I managed to read this book in 1 day. My favourite character was obviously Mackenzie since she makes the story how it’s meant to be! I would recommend this series of books to girls 8-11 as it’s a growing up book about high school.

I like it because it was just so good.
I like the part where Nikki won the art competition.
I recommend it to anyone.
