Nikki Maxwell is your average girl trying to make it through life with her diary to help her! Read her entertaining and funny diary entries about her daily struggles at school and at home, with annoying little sisters, mean girls, and cute boys highlighting her stories! I personally liked this book because it’s like a Diary of a Wimpy Kid book, but different and interesting in its own way at the same time. I love Nikki’s reactions and description to the events in her life. They are hilarious! For anyone looking for a quick, fun read, check out this entertaining book! I give it 4/5 stars and recommend it for ages 7+!

I liked the plot and the drawing in the book. However the girl just seemed a little too cliched. Obviously there is the popular girl and a self conscious girl likes him and stutters a lot when talking to him.
This book is the first book of the Dork Diaries Series. This is only the start of the drama for Nikki Maxwell, a middle schooler who considers herself a dork.
this is a really good book. if you are in middle school i recommend you read this. it is so retell able! it starres Nickky and her nonstop pain Mackenzie
This book is great!👍
so funny! definitly recommend if you are in middle school. Easy read! a relaxing joyful story with the adventures of Nikki, Chloe, Zoe, and Brandon!
I'm not a really big fan of Dork diaries but this book was actually a pretty fun book...but, well I think you should read this book because it is pretty fun!!
Dork Diaries 1: Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life is a funny book that I sometimes think is a girl book which is true but is really really funny.
I love this book! It's so funny and everyone in my class started reading it the summer before 2nd grade. I especially love the comic strips!
I'm a boy, so I didn't really like this book. It's about a girl named Nikki who is a dork. Instead of a phone, her mom gave her a diary. My sister has almost all the books, so it's a series.
