Dork Diaries: Pop Star (Volume 3)

Product Information

Holy cow, this book is bad. And no, it’s not just because I am not the target market, it’s an objectively bad book. I’ll try and keep my list of grievances short:

That morning, Nikki hears the phone ring and Nikki answers it. Principal Winston is calling to tell her dad about the infestation that had recently appeared at the school and Nikki leaves a message, realizing the embarrassment her dad would bring unto her if he were to come to take care of the problem. So, she decides not to tell him. The conflict of this story is that Nikki gets a tuitionbill in the mail and has no way of paying it and if she does not she will have to move to another school.

[3] The Misadventures of Max Crumbly spinoff [ edit ] Who was this book written for? The author kept inserting jokes about the most obscure pop culture references. There was even a joke about the time “Don’t Stop Believing” was played on the MTV reality show “The Hills” in 2006. At what point in time would that reference ever have been relevant?

Mini-review: I love these books. They are so ridiculous yet real and all of the mid to late 2000s pop culture references like the Jonas Brothers and Justin Timberlake. I loved this series growing up but I never read very far into it (only to book four and half of book five). I can't wait to finish this series. This spin-off series focuses on Maxwell "Max" Crumbly, the character introduced in Tales from a Not-So-Perfect Pet Sitter and, also written in diary format, his life in middle school.

The series, written in a diary format, uses drawings, doodles, and comic strips to chronicle the daily life of its initially 14-year-old protagonist, Nikki Maxwell. [1]

Marcus Marcus is a recurring character in the Dork Diaries series. He is the guitarist of Nikki's band, Actually, I'm Not Really Sure Yet. He appears in Dork Diaries: Tales From a Not-So Talented Pop Star and Dork Diaries: Tales From a Not-So Happy Heartbreaker. He appears to be a shy, nice, and thoughtful character in Dork Diaries and is also known as one of the smartest people in school along with Theodore L. Swagmire III. He also has a crush on Chloe Garcia, and the both of them went on a date at the Sweetheart Dance in Dork Diaries: Tales From a Not-So Happy Heartbreaker. Nobody seems to know about the video, much to Nikki's relief. She, Zoey and Chloe plan to perform at the school's talent show on the 30th. The winning act gets to be on the TV show "15 Minutes Of Fame" by producer Trevor Chase. The girls just haven't thought of an act yet. Later, Brandon tells Nikki he can't sit with her at lunch because he's teaching a new photographer-in-training. Also, there appears to be a bug infestation, and Nikki is worried that Principal Winston will call the exterminator, AKA her dad, to take care of that. Nikki disguises herself to avoid being detected by Principal Winston, who sends her to the guidance counselor for four hours. Thankfully, her dad did not show up at all. Welcome to Nikki Maxwell's aDORKable world in the third book in the mega-selling Dork Diaries series – now with over 50 million copies in print worldwide!

It's Family Movie Night, and Nikki has no choice but to watch a really boring movie she's seen a million times. a b Cavna, Michael (21 May 2015). " 'Dork Diaries': The book empire built one awkward moment at a time". The Washington Post . Retrieved 23 August 2022.

To her surprise, she also learns Brandon was called in to lend them a hand as a drummer. Nikki is delighted by the news and slowly begins to get over being upset with him.
