Thank-you!
My ten-year-old
daughter Penelope is a fan of the Dork Diaries series. We enjoy reading the novels and listening to
the audiobooks together. We need to
catch up with the books in the middle of this series!
Dork Diaries 14: Tales from a Not So Best Friend Forever finds
our heroine Nikki and her friends spending the summer as the opening act for
the world famous Bad Boyz boy band.
Things look perfect for Nikki and her friends until her enemy Mackenzie manipulates
her way into an intern position working with social media for the tour. Even worse, Mackenzie is her roommate and
keeps trying to blackmail Nikki to get herself on stage. Will Nikki survive the summer, and get to
know the Bad Boyz?
Jenni Barber was a
great narrator and really seemed to inhabit Nikki’s character. Penelope was very engaged in the plot and especially
thought the quizzes that were sprinkled throughout the book on “which bad boy
is for you” were funny. I remember
liking those types of quizzes as a kid.
We both were very amused by the humor in the book. Penelope especially loved the Bad Boyz and
Nikki’s interactions with them.
Overall, Dork
Diaries 14 was a funny audiobook and kept me and my ten-year old daughter
entertained on our car trips. It prompted
fun discussions. Penelope really wants
this to become a Netflix series!
