Dork Diaries 14: Tales From a Not-So-Best Friend Forever
Dork Diaries 14 Tales From a Not-So-Best Friend Forever by Rachel Renee Russell 320 pages
Cute story, I didn't realize it was an ongoing series. Even though I came in to this series on the 14th book, it was still easy to keep up with the characters and what their current issues are. Nikki's band has been hired as the opening act for hugely famous boy band Bad Boyz! The girls are so stoked to do the tour and meet the guys, however, there is a glitch in their joy. Nikki's nemesis and on good days frenemy, MacKenzie Hollister's wealthy father has gotten her an in and turns out she will be tagging along with them acting as tour coordinator of venues and pretty much all else related to securing hotels, travel and taking care of details for both bands. MacKenzie thought it would be an easy gig with little to no work involved and basically a free ride/vacation what a rude awakening for her when she realized they actually expected her to work and the Bad Boyz are assuming she has the tour all planned out and everything taken care of. What????????? A funny fun ride with romance, lots of tween quizzes to see which Bad Boy would be the one for you in all manner of scenarios, cute book definetly geared for the tween set but fun none the less for an easy read on a day with time on your hands. I would recommend this one to anyone looking to get an idea of current tween life in the age of cellphones and excellerated technology. It is a new world to those of us from the previous century and a lol romp for 21st centurions (insert smiley face emoji).
