Yet again another great Dork diary book comes out and it's a great read when I have nothing to read.

So, um, despite my expectations, I soon found myself laughing and crying at Nikki's "dorkiness" and the strange antics of Miss Bri-Bri, the hero of the story. two stars because this book felt repetitive and some things made me dislike Nikki even more as a spoiled, self-centered person. I admit it was predictable, so predictable that she mentioned one sentence and I was able to skip to the next few pages to confirm exactly what I had thought would happen. If Nikki and her friends made it through a book without miscommunication causing all sorts of problems I’d be shocked.Unfortunately, Nikki has a budget of 100 dollars and she needs 500 dollars and she has a lot more problems. Dork Diaries: Tales from a Not-So-Happy-Birthday, also known as Birthday Drama, is the 13th book in the Dork Diaries series.

Nikki and her friends find the cards, but bumped into a man and lost the invitations with all the mail. They've got the perfect plan, but a couple of roadblocks stand in their way, will it still be a success? Back home, while Nikki was making letters to tell the guests that the party was unfortunately canceled, Brianna offers Nikki money to make a site for her business. Nikki has a nightmare that MacKenzie Hollister ruined Nikki's country club birthday party and is getting nervous to have a party.If a teacher wants their students to start writing about their days in a journal or diary, this could introduce the concept for them. Not saying that Hollister isn't a butt, she is, but still Nikki could have done a lot of different things to prevent all her drama. The funny part was when Nikki's little sister Briana kept baking with her new Princess Sugarplum Easy Bake Oven and made these amazing doggy snacks, great for humans and dongs. But, I do respect the point that Rachel is trying to keep her readers hooked in and probably has everything solved at the last minute/last book. Dork Diaries Tales from a not so Happy Birthday by Rachel Renee Russell is about a girl named Nikki Maxwell and her and her friends Chole and Zoey want to throw a HUGE party for Nikki.
