Dork Diaries: Skating Sensation (Volume 4)

Product Information

Nikki prepares to go to Fuzzy Friends with Brandon and gives him a bow from Brianna for wrapping around the puppies. They take some photos with the puppies wearing it and they are so sad to see Nikki go, they pounce on her. Despite that, Nikki has a wonderful time. Brandon takes a photo of the puppies wearing the pieces of ribbon for Nikki to give to Brianna as thanks. Melodramatic, Typical Paranormal-Romance Lead Girl (ew.): He was so beautiful as he walked down the hallway, he seemed to glide like an angel. His muscles flexed gracefully as he walked towards the door. His skin glistened as he reached for the door knob, and he twisted it so slowly and angelically that I almost fainted. (Please note that this particular lead girl was describing a shirtless guy opening a door.) Nikki finds out that her crush Brandon volunteers at a local animal shelter. He's such a sweet guy – of course he wants to help those adorable puppies!

So. My review for this lovely, lovely installment of Dork Diaries AWAITS! (Jeez, I can't wait to read it. I should have bought a copy, but alas . . . I have no money.) I thought this book was funny of how girly the characters sounded. The genre of this book is fiction. I really liked how Nikki was willing to do anything for her crush, Brandon. I thought it was cute. With a HUGE global fanbase, Dork Diaries is the perfect series for fans of Lottie Brooks, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Tom Gates. I mean I think she's the kind of girl where if a guy said, "You look really pretty today," she'd say, "WHAT?! SO I LOOKED UGLY YESTERDAY?!" Anyway, the way Nikki words her words made me LAUGH. She made jokes along the way, and they were actually FUNNY!I need to read this book. This is definitely happening within the next month because if it doesn't . . . NO ONE TOLD ME THIS! Absolutely no one. When I finished the first book, no one said, "Hey Theresa, there's a 4th book, you know." While the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series is by far the most popular series in my school library, Dork Diaries is also very popular. I must confess that I find Dork Diaries more enjoyable. Maybe it's because I don't find Greg very likeable, maybe because I can relate to a girl main character better. But I think that it is most likely because Nikki personifies so well the dramas of middle school. I have to laugh at how horrified she becomes at things that I no longer would even blink at, but which really are so important to kids at that age. I also like Nikki and her friends because they are real with talents and weaknesses who often make poor decisions and then have to live with the consequences. The lead girl usually falls for a very hot guy, right? So she DESCRIBES the hot guy over and over and over and over and over. And yeah, she might give her opinions about how hot the guy is.

With a HUGE global fanbase, Dork Diaries is the perfect series for fans of Lottie Brooks, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Tom Gates. Anyway, I LOVE the teenage girliness in this book, mostly because, well, as cliche as it SEEMS and as many girls that walk this planet that go around shouting "OMG!" every fifteen seconds, there aren't many books like this. It's Christmas Eve, and Mrs. Maxwell has made sweaters with 3D style snowmen jutting out. They get together to take a family photo wearing them, but the tree falls over just as the camera goes off, thanks to Brianna wanting a candy cane. They'll also be going to Aunt Mabel's tomorrow for dinner, which Nikki is not looking forward to.I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE Dork Dairies. I read almost all of them. This is one of my favourites. When will Nikki and Brandon get together????? Nikki heads to the high school arena that the students will be skating at for Holidays On Ice only to fall flat on her face and butt due to her inability to skate. So . . . I was at the store . . . just browsing through the books that they had . . . and I stumbled across a bunch of copies of this book . . . and my first reaction was:

Christmas is right around the corner and the Maxwells are getting into the spirit. Mr. Maxwell and Brianna decorate Max the Roach up, much to Nikki's horror. Just when she was finally gonna tell Chloe and Zoey the truth about her scholarship, too.

Table of Contents

Brandon wants to talk to Nikki in the newspaper office about how she's been acting. After that's cleared up, she notices that he's looking at photos for the animal shelter called Fuzzy Friends, which Brandon volunteers at. Brandon invites Nikki to help out on Friday, and she happily accepts, clearing all doubt about what she thinks he thinks of her.

Anyway, overall, if you're not freaked out by your average teenage girliness and you want a good laugh from a book, this book is the one you should put on your to-read list! Oh, and Nikki's reactions to things are also pretty cliche-yet-not-cliche. SHE FREAKED OUT ABOUT EVERYTHING. NIKKI MAXWELL Your average teenage girl with that "OMG" habit, a family she can be embarrassed by, and no. She's not a super model. Nikki and her friends were going to do make a performance for a charity to win ten thousand dollars, but they didn't know who they could sponsor. Their routine was fine, just that Nikki wasn't such a good skater and they fact that they couldn't find someone to sponsor was a bit more worse. But things took a bit of a twist when her crush, Brandon asked her to help him with some puppies at an animal shelter and obviously she said yes, so when she went with Brandon to help him out, she had such a good time. She later then found out that the owners of the shop were going to close and Brandon was upset. Nikki later then found out why he was so upset, it was because The owners were Brandon's grandparents and if the place closed they would have to move and Nikki wouldn't ever get to see Brandon ever again. So Nikki tried getting her act together to help Brandon out, but when it was close to performance her group's outfits disappeared and they went out as clowns and well ... they ended up doing their routine like clowns and they were falling. The thing is that everyone loved it and they ended up winning the ten thousand dollars for charity. Everything turned out fine for her and Brandon. With a HUGE global fanbase, Dork Diaries is the perfect series for fans of Lottie Brooks, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Tom Gates.
