Each of the four girls' voices is not distinct, so remembering who is narrating was a challenge for me. It might have worked better to have the entire book from one character's POV, like the Cupcake Diaries I'm often on the lookout for books to gift to my nieces. This wouldn't have detracted from the book at all. Sep 17, Livette rated it it was amazing.
Loved, loved, loved it! I read this just because my year old sister made me, and at first I thought it was going to be one of those cliche tween books. I was so wrong!

As soon she steps in the class, she feels the uncomfortableness and the nervousness. Rodriguez announces the lunch group where you have to stay with it for 7 months to bond with friends. There she meets her new lunch mates, Katani, the tall girly major stylist, Maeve, the mature blonde party girl, and Avery, the athletic sporty short girl. Clearly they all had a totally different personality with almost nothing in common. There Charlotte tries to clear the air up and makes the most embarrassing mistake in the whole school student history.
The table cloth was stuck in her zip of her trousers. Everybody in the whole entire school had hated her. Instantly she becomes the jerk of the school. It was the end of the world for her, until Ms. Rodriguez decides to plan a sleepover to make the friendship any better, and this sleepover changes her whole entire school life. She becomes the jerk to the happiest student in school. One of my favorite scene of this book was when Charlotte and the girls becomes closer as they start to know each other a little bit more better.
Towards the ending of the book, they become almost best friends which was very sup rising and unexacting to me because they are so different from each other. My other favorite scene was when at the ending of the book when all the students have to write a reflection about their classmates and how they bonded with their punch groups and you can see they all have changed a lot about their feelings for each other comparing to the reflection they wrote at the beggining when they said that they couldn't stand eating together and they wanted to change their lunch groups as fast as possible.
I loved it because you can see how much they have become closer to each other. I had so many things I loved about his book because it involves friendship, Romance, Humor and others and it was very adventurous. I also liked it because they had a lot of consequences as the story goes on. I found it very unusual and fun book to read. I highly recommend this book to everyone but not kids under 11 and probably not a very good book for a boy to read since this book is more of based on girl friendship more than boys. I give this book four stars. Jan 15, Sarah Crawford rated it really liked it.
This is a series of books based on the adventures of some girls in junior high. The viewpoint also depends on which girl is talking during the chapter, the first two chapters being from Charlotte's point of view. The first girl we are introduced to is Charlotte who has lived in Africa, Australia, Paris and who is now living in America.
She's rather clumsy and quite nervous about starting at a new school. Her father is a writer and teacher. The house they are now living in has a tower she can't This is a series of books based on the adventures of some girls in junior high. The house they are now living in has a tower she can't get into. It starts off quite humorously with her list of ten things not to do on the first day in school. The good news is that she didn't go any of those; the bad news is she did something far worse, tangling a tablecloth in the zipper of her pants, standing up and thereby dumping everything on the table at the other people who were sitting there.
That is so not a way to win friends and influence people. Although you can easily picture the incident in your mind and it is incredibly funny. We're next introduced to Maeve, who's part Irish. She loves movies and wants to be an actress. She also has dyslexia. Katani is the next one introduced. She wants to be a fashion designer and she's black.

Avery adopted from South Korea is up next. She loves animals and sports. The third chapter is from Katani's point of view. She has an 18 year old sister, Candice; a 16 year old sister, Patrice, and a 14 year old sister, Kelly, who is autistic. Fields has gotten it into her head that Charlotte will be Katani's and others new best friend, something which Katani rather strongly objects to, to say the least.

The next two chapters are from Charlotte's point of view. Chapter 6 is from Avery's point of view. There's also some entries from the journals of the other girls. Chapter 7 is Katani's. She asks the teacher to change her lunch group with includes the other girls , but the teacher says to wait another day. Chapter 8 is Charlotte's. And so it goes; I won't list each chapter's writer from here on. In one of the class assignments Avery brings up a very good point about racism indications on standardized tests. Charlotte and Maeve also come up with good suggestions for the seventh grade.
It's obvious that the book will not be just humor but will have some good, practical things in it also. This is a delightful book to read; lots of humor and well-done characters make it a pleasure to read. There's no great discussions of world problems, no bodies falling out of windows, no moral pronouncements or political diatribes; it's just a fun read.

You might be afraid you look lame, but think about it. Would you rather sit at home or do something you enjoy? I started seriously trying to friend myself at the start of college. It turns out, I have a lot okay, literally everything in common with myself.

Those commonalities are fun. Last week, I bought myself a dozen roses after a long day. Ultimately, you can have multiple best friends there is no limit, the limit does not exist! One of them should be you. Improv club Actually Gavin brings big laughs to the Bluff.
