Hysterically fun satire of middle school teen girl and her effort to "date" a band. I liked this one better than my daughter did because I found the young generation's take on the older generation's musical tastes dead on! This series is my guilty pleasure. I encourage the girls to leave them in the car so I can suck them down while doing the Mom-waiting-in-the-car-for the kids to come out thing. The girls love that I read these and are always asking me if I thought a certain passage was funny. Excellent series, I think, for girls that may not be that into reading -- but they'll like this. I think of it as Junie B. Jones for middle school. When an author can come up with a band's name that can't be written down because it's the sound of the sigh that teenagers often make when dealing with their parents or other adults who can't possibly understand, you can expect the rest of the book is going to be amusing.What I really like about these books (besides how funny they are) is that there's a point to the story, too. It's not just a collection of funny events (though I'd probably still read it if it were that), but, secretly, a kind of lesson as well. Now I need to figure out if I accidentally skipped #10 or if I have to wait until the next one comes out.
